Is this most technically advanced shed by the sea?

We love sheds by the sea and we especially love sheds with tech but Sheddies tech favorite Suzi Perry has created a beach hut with virginmedia for all your techheads who are spending the rest of the summer down at the good old British seaside and need your gadget fix.

Beach lovers will be able to surf the web as well as the waves outside when they visit a beach hut packed full of the latest technology.

The best-connected seaside pad in the country was designed in Beach Green, Shoreham, West Sussex

Despite being only 10ft by 8ft, with a 4ft porch, the hut includes everything from wind-powered lights to a coffee maker and hi-fi system.

The gadgets were chosen by television presenter and technology expert Suzi Perry, on the basis that they are must-have items for sophisticated seaside living.

Perry said: “As more of us are embracing staycations, spending time at the beach has become an integral part of British family holidays.

“I think gadget-enhanced huts like this will become increasingly desirable as it means the whole family will be entertained, whether there’s rain or shine, or simply just to keep in touch with friends and family whilst away from home.

“Beach time to me is all about having fun and relaxing, but it’s reassuring to know that innovation in technology means you can enjoy the best in entertainment and connectivity even when spending time beside the seaside.”
