Sea-View Stargazing Beach Hut on Mudeford Sandbank

Summary:
Experience beachfront bliss at our Mudeford Sandbank Beach Hut! Your ideal base for a beach day or romantic retreat. Accessible via Hengistbury Head, enjoy our secluded beach, hop on the ferry to Mudeford Quay for crabbing and seaside lunches. Our hut is Family-friendly with a kitchenette, loungers, and deck. As night falls, have a rustic stay for up to 4 guests, BBQ under the stars with Jurassic Coast views. Wake to a refreshing sea swim!

The Space:
Please note that power is supplied via mobile power packs, and may not always provide power for the full duration of your stay.

However candles are available to provide late night ambiance.

The property is ideal for families, and couples. But not for groups of friends.

Please note that the Beach Hut is not good for bookings with accessibility issues. The hut is a decent 20 minute walk from the car park, and access to the hut is often via walking over sand.

Please note, that this property operates with a zero-tolerance, and very strict policy for any noise, and does not accommodate for any events of any size.

Guests must only be the number stated in the booking at all times. And the sandbank employs security who prevent extra guests from attending at all times.

Guests must also adhere to sandbank guidelines, and be silent after 10pm, with no amplified noise (including a portable speaker of any size) allowed at any time.

We provide a host for all stays to ensure compliance with our rules, and take a security deposit which is retained in full if any rules are breached.

The hut operates on a "leave it as found" policy - With guests required to sweep up and clean as they go. We retain a deposit for cleanliness in light of this.

Notes for enjoyment of the beach hut.
- Because of its isolated location. Bring all food & drink you'll want for your stay with you to the hut. There is a cafe on the Spit, but the nearest supermarket is quite a long way away! We have oil, salt pepper etc at the beach hut.
- If planning a BBQ, please bring your own charcoals. You may have to clean out the coals from the last guest - However you can leave your charcoals in the BBQ after your stay (to cool down).

Guest Access:
Full private access to the beach hut throughout the day, and overnight.

The beach hut is remote and isolated on Mudeford Sandbank. The hut is Beach facing, rather than harbour facing, and located in the middle of the spit.

Access to the hut is best from Hengistbury Head car park, where parking costs around £17 per day. From here it is then a 20-25 min walk (through the forrest), or you can use the Land rover train during the day for an extra small charge.

You should buy essentials before you park up and head to the beach hut. On the sandbank there is a beach cafe, which has varied opening hours during the seasons. Check their facebook page "Beach House Cafe Mudeford" for full info.

Toilets and shower facilities are located in a separate block, just a 50m walk from the beach hut. The hut itself has water supplied from a water butt at the back of the hut. And there's a mains water pipe located behind the hut for fresh drinking water, and to refill the water butt when required.

The Neighborhood:
A unique stay, in one of the UK's most illustrious Sandbanks.

Please note:
- That this is a quiet place, where no amplified music, or parties of any kind can take place.
- Guests must be conscious of neighbors, and we respond on a zero tolerance basis for any neighbor noise complaints, whereby your deposit will be retained in full.
- This space operates on a bring your own linen or sleeping bags arrangement
- Note that power is not guaranteed for the full duration of your stay, due to use of portable battery packs

Getting Around:
Note the beach hut is located a 25 minute walk (Or 10 minute train line) from Henigsbury Head car park.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this quirky, well equipped beach hut. The interior is well designed and maximises the space available. The result being that it can comfortably accomodate a family of four. The hut itself is well positioned about half way along the sand bank, sufficiently close to the pier, train stop and beach hut cafe. An added bonus of staying in October was that we had the beach pretty much to ourselves after 4pm when the last train and boat for the day departed.
