Now the grand kids have turned into a tribe and they need tiring out does anyone know if you can still hire chalets at the Fitties, great holiday when I was a kid.

Pretty sure you can. I’ve seen chalets on Airbnb, can’t remember if they were on the Fitties though.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

We go through the fitties regularly and there's plenty for hire.

This might help:

Selling prices have rocketed recently, some are up for sale for as much as £180,000 for what is let's face it a glorified shack.

When you think what you can get a proper house for in Cleethorpes it’s bonkers isn’t it? Not quite Mudeford Spit levels where beach huts set you back £300k. Nice, big beach huts, in a lovely location, but still beach huts.

You can also try Thorpe Park next door to the fitties, it's a modern day caravan park.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Hi Herts

A company who managed/owned a place I booked in Cleethorpes via AirBNB also do bookings direct. Dunno if they have chalets. Think it might be cheaper than Airbnb price if they do:

I know someone who bought a chalet on the fitties for £7000 a few years back. I told him he wanted certifying.

He's just sold it in a week for 10 times that amount and it's not even that nice. They will probably knock it down and build a new one on the site, as is happening more frequently since Tingdene bought it from the council.

Lots of solid wooden chalets and even brick-built properties have been arising there in recent years. A bit different to the shacks of old which looked like they might struggle to stand in a strong wind!

Bit of a gamble spending too much money on one given the way the climate is going. That storm surge the other year washed away a good  chunk of the dunes protecting the Fitties so they might only have another decade or two if sea levels rise as anticipated...
