The area is also adorned with seasonal flora, such as vibrant pink thrift and golden gorse, creating a stunning backdrop for sunset views over the Atlantic Ocean. This unique combination of natural beauty and historical significance makes Solebay a perfect retreat for nature lovers and history enthusiasts alike.
In addition to Solebay, the site also features Argus Cottage, which accommodates three guests, providing additional options for larger groups or families traveling together.
