Best for... OCEAN VIEWS
Cary Arms Beach Hut, Torquay, Devon
Basking on the English Riviera in sunny Babbacombe Bay is a row of handsome huts kitted out like five-star hotel bedrooms. There's a king-size bed on a mezzanine floor - with pillow-level porthole for briny views - a sitting room with two TVs and a crackling feature fire, plus bathroom with walk-in shower. On arrival, pour yourself a glass of wine or sloe gin from the complimentary mini bar, fold back the glass doors to the sunbathing deck and enjoy a panorama of the Jurassic Coast. Although there's no kitchen, you can get a hamper breakfast delivered to your door, or dine in at the Cary Arms Hotel and Spa next door.
Sleeps two, from £255 per night; thewanderlist.uk

'THAT'S NOT MY BABY'
Lying in the hospital bed, my husband Michael had tears of happiness in his eyes as he showed me a photo on his phone. 'Here she is,' he said proudly. 'This is our beautiful baby girl.'I stared at the photo and shook my head. 'No, that's not my baby,' I said. 'There must be a mistake.'It was August 2010 and I'd not long before had an emergency caesarean. I'd not had a chance to see Winnie when she arrived as she'd been whisked away for tests because she was nearly two months premature.
