Property Summary

A rare opportunity to acquire one of the last privately owned lighthouses in the UK!


Elevated on the cliff-top just South of the village of Dale, sitting adjacent to the renowned Pembrokeshire Coastal path, enjoying breath-taking views all year round this idiosyncratic home is looking for a new owner to love and to cherish it for years to come.

Built in 1844, The Old Lighthouse, St Anne’s Head is a unique, iconic, awe-inspiring home, comprising of two self contained properties which could easily be converted into one dwelling, with 8 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms in total. With a large indoor pool with stunning views, sauna and games room, laundry room and double garage. Having a large open plan kitchen and dining entertaining space with panoramic views out to sea and a central chimney ready for an open fire. Climbing the four-storey cylindrical tower steps you reach the 360 degree observational tower offering stunning far-reaching views and a place to entertain or an ideal place to sit and quietly watch the waves roll and the tankers move along. Outside there is ample parking and separate seating and patio areas making the most of the views.

This unusual home was run as a successful holiday let with 100% occupancy until recently, however, the property requires some TLC to bring it back to its former glory.

The separate self contained cottage, with hallway, kitchen, living room and dining room with sea views, and two bedrooms both with en-suite bathrooms, makes ideal guest accommodation, or could provide additional rental income. It was incredibly popular when offered as a holiday rental previously and enjoyed a regular 80% occupancy rate. Alternatively this could be utilised as owners accommodation with the lighthouse as the main let.

Offering so much versatility, with no onward chain, this wondrous home is a rarity on the market, a special home, in an area of natural beauty, could this unique, historical home be the one for you?
