Lighthouse Cottage is a popular destination for wildlife enthusiasts and birdwatchers due to the diverse and windswept nature of the reserve it is situated in. The views of the sunrises and sunsets are simply breath-taking, and guests will adore the opportunity to immerse themselves in nature. Visitors can expect a modern and contemporary feel to the cottage, with furnishings of a high standard and many thoughtful little touches to make for a wonderful holiday.
Binoculars and bird watching guidebooks can provide hours of entertainment from the dunes around the reserve with guests able to spot eider ducks, willow warbler and sandwich terns in the Spring or nesting gulls, eiders, oystercatchers ringed plovers and sandwich terns in the summer. In the cooler Autumn and Winter months, guests can keep warm using the beautiful log burner after the long walks to spot the waders and wildfowl.
Guests can cook up a feast in the fully-fitted kitchen with all amenities and equipment including a coffee machine and an integrated dishwasher. Or, if wanting to relax just head to one of the many eateries on the island, such as Bosun’s Locker Café or The Owl and Pussycat Restaurant. Boat trips for a day on the water can be organised from Barrow-in Furness, or if it’s a historical visit you are after then plan an afternoon at The Dock Museum or Furness Abbey.

Upon entering the Lighthouse Hide you step into a large open-plan area, which has a double aspect and is flooded with light, whatever the time of day. This leads off to the bedroom, which has a king-sized bed and luxury en-suite with walk-in shower.
Outside there is a decked area, with outside furniture, perfect for soaking up the summer sun with a glass of wine and taking in the fabulous views. A rear enclosed garden leads down to a den with further seating. There is ample off-road parking and there are plenty of trails to explore across the dunes.
The Lighthouse Cottage is right next door and is let independently - both can be reserved together to sleep a total of 8. Please note: this is a nature save and there are limitations on where you can meander and there is no access to the beach on the South tip of Walney Island. The Cumbria Wildlife Trust manages the nature reserve, which is also a Site of Special Scientific Interest. There are strict rules about where you can wander on the island. No dogs, drones or fireworks are permitted at the property or anyplace on the property or nature reserve. A warden keeps a close eye on the nature reserve, and car registration information is required to get into the property access lane before you arrive. The lane is quite bumpy, and a vehicle with a high clearance is highly recommended.
