Hire a Beach Hut in Gorleston

Just south of the bright lights of Great Yarmouth, Gorleston-on-Sea boasts a stunning sandy beach, a huge bay with views of the harbour and river, a grand promenade and cliff top gardens. Awarded a Travellers Choice Award from Trip Advisor, Gorleston's long, wide promenade is perfect for walking and cycling with plenty of space on the beach for sandcastle builders, deckchair dozers and stand up paddleboard enthusiasts.  

Take the opportunity to hire one of Gorleston's beach huts for use between 8am and sunset (except key collection and return days). Located at the quieter, southern end of Lower Esplanade, the beach huts are the ideal place to spend your days soaking up the fantasic beach and sea views.

Along the cliff tops, amazing views can be seen of the beach and promenade below plus ships coming and going in and out of the harbour's mouth. The cliff top also plays host to many activities such as outdoor bowls, tennis courts, a trim trail and a children's play area. Step and ramp access lead down to the wide, flat promenade - ideal for walking, running and cycling with a variety of amusements, shops and cafés providing all the beach essentials from buckets and spades to ice creams and fish and chips. You'll also find a peaceful yacht pond and a children's splash pad with water fountains and tipping water features. 

Away from the main hustle and bustle, relax in a beach hut enjoying the view either inside or from the veranda. The beach huts come equipped with a table and two chairs with access to an amenity block housing washbasins and toilets exclusively for beach hut visitors.
