Warden is a cosy lighthouse cottage perched at Bull Point in Devon. This former keeper's home sits on a dramatic headland near Woolacombe and Mortehoe. Originally built in 1879 but now fully refurbished, it offers a rare chance to stay in a working lighthouse. The lighthouse is now automated so you won't need to man the foghorn!
The location is simply spectacular. Waves crash against rugged cliffs below while coastal paths stretch in both directions. Walk 1. 2 miles to Woolacombe's award-winning beach or explore Mortehoe's rocky coves. Perfect for wildlife spotting - dolphins, seals and seabirds are regular visitors.
