Lighthouse holiday cottages

For generations, the UK's network of lighthouses have protected ships from the devastating rocks that pepper the country’s coastline. Now, some of these beautiful, iconic buildings have been transformed into unique holiday cottages.

Enjoy a sea view like no other from one of our lighthouses and wake up to the sound of the waves. Experience life as it was for the nation’s dedicated lighthouse keepers, but with the home comforts you'd expect on holiday.

Our lighthouse holiday homes are located all over the country, from the turbulent North Sea to the English Channel, but they all have one thing in common - breathtaking scenery.

The Lighthouse Keepers' Cottage, Devon 

This large, unique holiday cottage is perfect for groups looking for a remote break. The cottage is perched on the edge of a cliff looking out to sea where if you're lucky you can spot dolphins, porpoise and gannets in the bay below. If all that wildlife watching is too much, then relax by cooking up a storm in the modern kitchen (and enjoy the cosy feeling if there's a real one brewing outside). Sleeps 10.
