Prospect of renting Christchurch beach hut very attractive for some

Owning or renting a beach hut around Christchurch can be quite a sought-after prospect as seen earlier in the year.

Fifteen cabins were available for long-term rent at Avon Beach at the beginning of January and some dedicated staycationers went to extreme lengths to make sure they got their hands on one.

They queued for up to 30 hours in the cold and rain next to the administration office near the beach to make sure they got in early with their request.

The cost to rent a 7ft by 4ft hut from April to September is £3,075 while a bigger hut is almost £4,000.
