Chalets

[NotAllThere]

Here's my chalet.

It's cheaper to rent, next to the nuddy beach too

You wouldn't want to be anywhere near that particular nuddy beach. Not if the day on which I did a bit of research down there for a uni project was anything to go by.

Possibly so in West Dorset, but things aren't a lot cheaper to the east.

You need to get in somewhere before it's on the map and the yuppies arrive. Not many of them left in the south west, Burnham On Sea perhaps?

I think you need a shed expert. Anyone know one?

There are a few here: http://forums.contractoruk.com/gener...-shedhead.html

Edit: Actually, ignore that. While the thread title is all about sheds, the content appears to be a load of bollocks.

Seventy grand? That's a snip, down here they're a tad more expensive.

Does anyone here own a seaside chalet? I hear that sometimes they go for ridiculous prices -there's one in Southwold on the market for 70 grand - and that's just a glorified garden Shed that you can only use for 6 months of the year as the council move it into a carpark along with all the others to ptrotect them fom a north sea winter.

What exactly to you get to own? Surely not just the shed - what happens when it needs replacing? Perhaps it's some kind of lease & the council are responsible for the upkeep.

My interest was piqued as I was walking along the front at Lyme Regis the other day & saw all the families huddled together in their chalets sharing their packed lunches. It took me back years & made me want one too.

Technically, Chalets are only found in the mountains.
