Description

Set within the grounds of the iconic Barns Ness Lighthouse and surrounded by some of East Lothian's most spectacular coastline, Barns Ness Lighthouse Cottage presents an exceptionally rare opportunity to rent a truly unique five-bedroom detached coastal residence.

Occupying a wonderfully secluded position overlooking the North Sea, the cottage enjoys breathtaking sea views, remarkable privacy and direct access to the rugged natural beauty for which this stretch of coastline is renowned. Whilst the historic lighthouse itself is not included within the tenancy, the setting provides an extraordinary backdrop that few homes can rival.

Extending to approximately 1,915 sq ft, the cottage has been refurbished throughout, and offers generously proportioned and flexible accommodation over a single level, perfectly suited to family living or those seeking a peaceful coastal retreat.

Accommodation Comprises:

Two entrances with vestibules; Hallway; Living Room with electric fire; Dining Room leading through to one of two conservatories and open plan to the modern fitted kitchen; Principal double Bedroom with en-suite shower room; Four further double bedrooms; Family bathroom; Separate WC; Two Conservatories, perfectly positioned to capture the stunning coastal outlook and surrounding landscape throughout the seasons.

Externally, the cottage is surrounded by extensive lawned gardens and open countryside, creating an exceptional sense of space and tranquillity. There is ample space for parking, and an EV charger. The uninterrupted coastal views and dramatic seascapes create a truly special environment seldom available within the rental market.

Barns Ness occupies a spectacular position on East Lothian's coastline, lying just a short distance from the thriving seaside town of Dunbar. Often referred to as 'Sunny Dunny' due to its favourable climate, Dunbar offers an excellent range of local amenities including independent shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets and leisure facilities. Outdoor enthusiasts are particularly well catered for, with excellent walking routes, coastal trails, cycling paths, sailing facilities, championship golf courses and renowned surfing beaches all nearby. East Links Family Park, John Muir Country Park and the stunning John Muir Way provide endless opportunities to explore the surrounding landscape.

Despite its wonderfully secluded setting, the property remains well connected. Dunbar Railway Station offers regular services to Edinburgh, providing a journey time of approximately 20 minutes, whilst the A1 offers convenient access to Edinburgh, East Lothian and the Scottish Borders.
