Councillors have backed plans for 20 more beach chalets on Bridlington seafront after new ones installed last year proved popular with visitors.
East Riding Council’s Eastern Area Planning Sub-Committee has approved the authority’s plans for the chalets, in Belvedere Promenade.
Bridlington South ward’s Cllr Tim Norman said he hoped the extra chalets would continue to bring more trade into the town following the success of those installed last year.
Plans for the new chalets stated they would match the existing ones, including being painted in the same four shades of blue.
They are set to be installed in two phases, 10 chalets each after a concrete base has been put down.
Each of the chalets is set to feature two deckchairs, two patio chairs and a worktop inside as well as a power supply.
The chalets will be next to the existing ones on a dog-friendly stretch of Bridlington South beach.
Visitors will be able to reach them from Belvedere Parade, near the Belvedere Hotel and Golf Club.
Steps take people to the chalets from the Promenade which is linked to South Marine Drive by various stairs and ramps.
Parking, toilets and a cafe are about a five-minute walk away from the site.
Prices for the chalets currently stand at £25 a day and £75 for a week after the council announced it was this year’s prices into 2023.
The current Belevere chalets are currently only available to book for weekly lets.
Plans from the council stated the new chalets were needed to meet demand for the chalets after the first 20 were finised in May 2021 and opened last summer.
They were fully booked for the summer holidays by late May.
Works to put in the existing chalets began in April to replace those already there which were in poor condition and took about a week.
Plans did not state when works would begin on the new chalets or when they will open.
