Summer is almost over here and the weather is pretty autumnal. We had our first Gale of the autumn on Tuesday/Wednesday which effectively killed everything in our Garden here! Salt wind is no good for any plant.
We saw many Basking Sharks this year but less Minke Whale. The Gannets are ever present, especially when the wind is strong - they like a rough sea.
We are currently building/converting a house in the next village at the moment which will be available for let on a self catering basis next summer. Please enquire if you are interested. It is a lovely detached cottage with uninterrupted sea views, underfloor heating run by ground source energy, large country kitchen, dining room with log fire and panoramic window seating, a cosy stone walled sitting room with log burning stove, two bedrooms and two bathrooms.
The Lighthouse is also available on a self catering basis for large parties. See main web site for details.
