Colchester: Book a beach hut short break for disabled children in Essex

To hire one of the Short Breaks beach huts there is a daily charge of £5. 

Visit shortbreaks.essex.gov.uk for further information. Short Breaks Brochure

Please note the double hut is not available to book during the two days of the Clacton air show. As this is a hugely popular date and to maximise the use of the three huts, families will only be able to book a single hut.

The following huts have wheelchair access:
'Sandy Shores' in Walton
'Kite Tails' and 'Sand Pails' in Clacton
'Rock & Chips' in Clacton
'Happy Days' in Clacton

The huts have easy access to the beach and are close to Changing Places facilities. You can also make use of a Landeez all-terrain wheelchair. We will send you instructions on how to collect the wheelchair when your booking is confirmed.
