The date for booking seaside chalets on the east coast for next summer has been announced. East Riding Council’s Coastal Services team has set the online launch of summer bookings, for chalets in Bridlington and Hornsea, as 8.30am on Wednesday, October 4. This will cover all arrivals between May 18 and September 27, 2024.
In response to customer feedback, there will also be some improvements to the summer chalet hire for 2024. Councillor Nick Coultish, portfolio holder for culture, leisure and tourism, said: “I know how popular these chalet bookings always are – it’s a massive part of the summer season in both Bridlington and Hornsea for many residents and visitors. “The improvements for 2024 offer an even better package, too, and I look forward to another very successful launch of our chalet bookings.” The details for hiring a chalet for summer 2024 are as follows:
Arrival dates
For the 2024 summer season, there will be Friday, Saturday, and Monday weekly arrival dates in all Bridlington locations.
Daily hire
For the 2024 summer season, daily hire will be on offer at North Marine Drive chalets, as well as two more daily hire options at Princess Mary Promenade, taking the daily hire chalet total to 12.
Late checkout
For the very first time, for all Bridlington chalet locations, tenants can now keep their chalet until 11pm on their last day of hire, free of charge. Keys will need to be returned using the new secure key boxes located at Coastal Services’ North and South offices.
No key deposits
For summer 2024, there will be no key deposits. Tenants can just collect their keys and go, meaning check-in will be quicker than ever before. (Terms and conditions apply).
South Cliff check-in – weekly arrivals
Also new for summer 2024, Coastal Services will be trialling a South Cliff check-in, for weekly hire arrivals between May 25 and September 7. Keys can be collected at the South Cliff location, instead of the Coastal Services office, between 1pm and 2pm*. To make a reservation, visit the East Riding’s beach chalet booking page from 8.30am on Wednesday, October 4. It is highly advisable to book online as last season, peak hire dates sold out almost instantly.
However, for those unable to book online, it is possible to call the Coastal Services office on 01262 678255. Chalets booked via this method will be subject to availability and, due to the anticipated high demand, will only be booked in real-time. No answerphone or email messages will be accepted or responded to. In-person bookings will not be possible on October 4, so please do not queue outside the Coastal Services office on that date.
