Driftwood Beach Hut, Southwold

A beach hut on Southwold’s colourful seafront is the ultimate addition to a British seaside holiday, giving you a base where you can change; shelter on a windy day; or relax in the shade. Driftwood is conveniently close to the pier to the south so you can stroll along to buy an ice cream or fish and chips! Availability is from 10am to 7pm following the night booked, i.e. book Sunday for access during Monday. No 79 is also particularly well designed and equipped for a trouble-free day on the beach with a selection of chairs and stools to move around with the sun, and fixed tables inside which conveniently flip down to give you more space when you want it, as well as a changing curtain in the corner.


The kitchen’s ready for any weather with a gas stove (gas provided), a kettle, coffee and tea pots; plenty of crockery, plastic plates, glasses etc; cutlery, a wash bowl and some cleaning materials so all you need to bring is the hamper of food and some drinks so keep you going for the day. An assortment of buckets, spades, bats and balls are stored in a chest to keep the little guests busy and there’s space for you to leave your own towels and beach gear safely overnight.


Beach huts are incredibly popular so be sure to book early. Guests staying at The Pink House on Chester Road, just a short walk up the steps, can enjoy a 10% discount so please get in touch with Stay in Suffolk to book (first come first served!)


Please note that this is not residential accommodation, i.e. you cannot sleep here, it's purely a beach hut for fun by the seaside during the day.
