Dorset beach hut with no bathroom on sale for £350,000

Set over two floors, it comes equipped with a small kitchen and can sleep up to six people. However, it does not have any beds.

Rather, it has four mattresses on the first-floor mezzanine and a day bed on the ground floor. Additional seating downstairs also doubles up as a sleeping space.

Despite its steep asking price – the average cost of a house in the UK is £255,000, as per the Office of National Statistics – the hut does not have a bathroom or a mains electricity supply.
