Shelter from the sun under the shady veranda of this pretty beach hut, so tiny and perfectly proportioned it could be a doll's house. Painted shutters and pine floors make it feel less like a shed and more like a summer house. For £16,000 you will have access to the north Norfolk coast at Heacham.

With a guide price of £70,000 this hut is all about location, location, location. OK, so it might look like a green garden shed on stilts, but this hut on Abersoch’s Porthmawr beach in north Wales has great views over Cardigan Bay, St Tudwal’s Islands and parts of Snowdonia.

This beautifully turned out beach hut in Wells-next-the-Sea in Norfolk appears in the latest issue of John Lewis magazine. And no wonder – the candy-striped Shruff End has been meticulously maintained and offers great views from its balustraded veranda. Inside are fitted units and a tiled floor, making it much more than a shed by the sea. Such luxury comes at a price: on top of the £60,000 upfront payment, you’ll pay £149 a year for a licence.
