  • Minimum stay: 2 nights

Sleeping up to 12 guests and two well-behaved dogs, Barns Ness Lighthouse Cottage is the perfect setting for memorable celebrations by the sea.

Nestled underneath the lighthouse itself, just a few minutes’ drive from the centre of Dunbar yet feeling blissfully remote, the light-filled Scandi-style cottage boasts hypnotic views of the rocky beach and the vast North Sea beyond.

All ground-floor accommodation, you’ll have five elegant bedrooms to choose from, plus two glistening conservatories that look out to the sea… simply grab a drink and curl up in one of the sumptuous sofas. There’s even a sofa bed that’s perfect for drifting off to the sound of the waves, under a blanket of stars.

Unwind in the cosy, sociable sitting room by evening, or al fresco on the dining patio, drinking in those glorious views as you make exciting holiday plans together.
