SALAD Days Beach Hut at Dunster Beach has added to its list of tourism awards – it has now been recognised in the Love Your Hut of the Year competition.
It came third in the coveted national contest with beach huts at Mudeford, in Dorset, and Dovercourt, in Essex, taking first and second places.
Run by the Yorkshire-based specialist hut insurance company ‘Love Your Hut’, the competition is open to entries from all kinds of huts including chalets, beach huts and shepherds’ huts from all over the UK.
“To be ranked so highly in a major national competition is such an honour,’’ said Brett Bates, who co-owns Salad Days with Susan Juggins.
“But it does also recognise how far the humble beach hut has come since its humble beginnings as Victorian bathing machines.”
Salad Days has received numerous accolades since launching in 2016 and has been fully booked for the last two years, with many guests returning.
