Lighthouse summary
PLEASE NOTE: ONLY BOOKABLE FOR WEDDINGS!
This room has arguably the best views in the lighthouse looking over the sea. It is the smallest room however, with a double four-poster bed raised up on a plinth so that you can watch the tide come in and out while laying in bed.
FOR SALE
This lighthouse is for sale. If you are interested in buying it, please contact us.
Lighthouse description
There is a 17” TV that you can also watch in bed if you like with access to roughly 100 DVDs for your entertainment. Then again, who needs movies if you have about the best view in the world?
Now something more about this lighthouse. Not only the rather odd dimensions (we're pretty sure you have not seen such a low and wide lighthouse before) but also the special features are very well appreciated by our guests. Just to give you an example: on the bottom of the stairs you will find our resident Dalek (we'll tell you more about this on arrival) and you will also find a TARDIS. An added bonus for Doctor Who for sure!
Complementary therapies and treatments
Apart from a great night rest and wonderful sea views, we are proud to offer a wide range of different therapies and treatments. From a full body massage and facials to hypotherapy and life coaching. Sounds good? Then don't forget to mention you want a treatment while booking your room.
About this lighthouse
We are the proud lighthouse keepers and love to share this wonderful place with you during a stay in our B&B or with a wedding. We are situated near the city of Newport, Gwent, at the junction of the Severn and the Usk estuaries, overlooking the Bristol Channel. The lighthouse was designed by the Scottish architect James Walker. The result is unique because of the rather odd dimensions: the building is actually shorter in height and larger in circumference.
The interior is rather quirky than luxurious and the wedge shaped rooms all have their own character. There is a stone spiral stairs right in the centre of the lighthouse, going all the way from the wine cellar (the original rain collecting well) up to top of this wonderful building.
For the Doctor Who fans out there: know that have our own Dalek on the bottom of the stairs - with a great story attached to it - and TARDIS on the roof.
Furthermore we have a very convenient bathtub in our roof garden - simply the best place to enjoy the sun set with a glass of champagne in your hand.
Look forward to welcome you aboard soon!
& Danielle
