The Boatshed café will aim to deliver and bring together a wide range of existing coastal activities and promote new ones

This project will replace an existing redundant boat shed with a new visitor facility, metres from the seafront, at Huttoft, between Sutton on Sea and the new North Sea Observatory.  The building will contain a high quality café and kiosk and an external area capable of hosting larger 'pop-up' summer food and other events.

It will also be able to host satellite art exhibitions and activities in conjunction with the North Sea Observatory Gallery in Chapel St Leonards. It will provide information to visitors on local attractions within the Lincolnshire Coastal Country Park. It will also provide information, refreshment and toilet facilities for walkers using the new National Coastal Footpath, passing directly outside the building.

The new Huttoft Boatshed café will be in a prime position to deliver and bring together a wide range of existing coastal activities and promote new ones.  Existing activities that will be promoted include :- organised walks and beach/sea safaris;  sea dipping; whale, seal and dolphin watching events; beach cleaning & events raising the awareness of plastic pollution; promoting the new National Coastal Footpath & local walking (and Cycling) routes.
