The property is currently undergoing complete refurbishment. This part is the original 1844 Brunel built Coastguards Watch House with 18" thick outer walls!

At the flagpole end of the building will be added an extension to make a dining room and the third bedroom

Once completed there will be 3 double bedrooms - 2 with en suites and the other will be opposite the bathroom which has a double shower and a bath.

The main living room is the main Coastguards working room and has a large fireplace and high ceilings with the stone that the building was built from visible on part of the walls.

               

A separate kitchen off the Living room will feature high quality oak units with granite work tops and all the appliances you would expect including washing machine and dishwasher.

Apart from two of the bedrooms and the main bathroom, which are at the back of the house, all rooms have excellent sea views. From the dining room patio doors lead onto a good sized paved area with plenty of room to enjoy the sea views and which still has the flagpole that was used in its previous life.

Work is currently about two thirds completed and I will update this page as progress is made. The current aim is to have the property ready for use by the end of 2010. Progress will speed up once the warmer weather returns as currently there is no heating in the building. The other part of the property has now been sold. It is available through an internet based holiday company. Click on the link below for information and booking details.

If you like being near the sea and you like railways in your living room! this could be the place for you.

Please Note

Access to the property is by a path and steep steps so it may not be suitable for everybody. Parking is available on the road fairly close to the property - everything has to be carried from the road down the path to the house.

NO SMOKING IN THE PROPERTY
