Start Point Lighthouse lies on a dramatic headland above Start Bay in the South Hams between Dartmouth and Salcombe. The Lighthouse was built in 1863, electrified in 1959 and automated in 1993. Two cottages are available, Landward and Beacon. Start Point lies 4 miles from the main road via narrow country lanes. The final stretch is 0.5 mile private walled tarmac drive which runs along the side of headland. The drive is shared with walkers, forming part of the South West Coastal Path. Guests can use the path to enjoy breathtaking cliff top walks in both directions. For sandy beaches, East Portlemouth, Slapton and Blackpool Sands are within a 20 minute drive.Guests should note that as well as walkers passing by the cottage, the lighthouse is open to visitors from 1000-1700 Easter to October. The fog horn activates automatically. To minimise discomfort guests may wish to bring earplugs just in case the conditions are misty. Beacon Cottage is a detached property opposite Landward Cottage. Perched on the cliff edge, it enjoys breathtaking views across Start Bay. If you would like to view the lighthouse please visit: www.lighthousevisits.co.uk.
