Adapt your beach hut
Apply to adapt a beach hut, view hut specifications and see the adaptation fees.
To adapt your beach hut you must get permission from us.
If we approve the adaptation, you'll need to pay a fee per year based on the additional floor space (in m²) of the hut. Some adaptations, such as disabled access and steps to the hut, are free.
Beach hut specifications
You can download and read specifications for beach huts across the district:
Fees
| Herne Bay | Whitstable | |
|---|---|---|
| Adaptation fee | £101.66 per m² | £85.98 per m² |
| 'Drop-down' fee | n/a | £40 per m² |
If you adapt your beach hut without permission, we will ask you to pay the costs or remove the adaptation.
