The cost of beach huts has surged by 102.1% in three years in West Sussex, where the going rate is now \u00a333,004.<\/p>\n
This asking price still pales in comparison to what you\u2019re expected to pay elsewhere on the south coast, as in Dorset the average beach hut price is a staggering \u00a3102,451 having increased by 66.3% since 2022.<\/p>\n
In Essex, you\u2019re looking at a price tag of \u00a345,878, followed by Kent (\u00a343,661), Hampshire (\u00a332,655), and East Sussex (\u00a330,784).<\/p>\n
