Mobile shelters for Smokers

A design for smokers! Non-smoking hotelier Chaz Charlton has invented an unique mobile smoking shelter for the smokers. Mr Charlton, who owns the Clifton Hotel on Portland, developed the idea alongside hotel manager Mark Pollard.

The mobile shelter - available to guests and staff - is an umbrella large and light enough for people to wear to cover their heads and shoulders.

Mr. Charlton said: "Basically, there was a planning issue when it came to putting up a smoking shelter. Plus, the Clifton gets strong winds coming off the cliffs from behind the hotel, so we couldn't put a shelter up there or out the front. So we came up with these shelters as a way for people to stand out the front and smoke and not worry about the wind and rain so much. These shelters have proven to be very popular with guests aged 18 to 65." Link
