Coastguard Lookout in Dungeness, Kent, sleeps 5 and features 2 bedrooms, 2 receptions, and 1 bathroom. The property is a converted 1950's tower with four floors and a steep metal staircase, making it unsuitable for those with mobility issues or very small children. The open-plan layout includes a ground floor reception room with sea views, a kitchen with underfloor heating, and a family room on the first floor with a double bed and single bed. The second floor has a sitting room with sea views, a log burner, and an iMac computer, while the top floor has a compact tower bedroom with a double bed and balcony access.
Outside, there is a patio area on the pebble beach, adjacent parking for several cars, and no BBQ provided. Towels and linen are included, and a variety of recommended eateries are available nearby. The property offers Wi-Fi, electric underfloor heating, and can accommodate up to two pets. The adjacent lighthouse may sound fog warning signals, and the property is located on a public beach with a private terrace. Please note that there are steep metal staircases and limited space for clothes storage for longer stays.
Coastguard Lookout is an old building built to Coastguard Agency Standards but is exposed to extreme weather conditions, which may lead to water ingress during storms. For photo shoots or TV/Film productions at the property, an additional fee and necessary licenses from The Dungeness Estate must be obtained. Located in Romney Marsh, the vacation home is near cultural landmarks such as Romney Hythe & Dymchurch Light Railway and Rye Castle Museum.
