An unforgettable stay
The Belle Tout Lighthouse at Beachy Head is a unique place to stay.
Built in 1832 and decommissioned in 1902, a tea-shop, a home, part-destroyed during the second world war and lovingly rebuilt in the 50's. Owned and filmed by the BBC, moved due to erosion - and now, beautifully restored and renovated.
With 360 degree views of the English Channel, beautiful landscape, countryside and the enigmatic Seven Sisters, Belle Tout is a remarkable place to stay.
With themed rooms such as 'The Captains Cabin', 'Old England' and 'Keepers Loft', the accommodation and facilities will ensure a comfortable and memorable break.
Relax in the Guest Lounge and on colder days warm your toes by the fire. Enjoy the sunset and the views of the Beachy Head Lighthouse and Seven Sisters from the breathtaking Lantern Room,

The History of the Belle Tout LighthouseRead more
The Belle Tout Lighthouse was built in 1832 and came into operation on the 11th October 1834. It was decommissioned in 1902 due to constant cliff top fogs and the threat of erosion.
It then became a tea house, bought as a family home by Sir James Purves-Stewart in 1923 and almost completely destroyed during the Second World War. It was restored as a family home, owned by the BBC to film The Life and Loves of a She-Devil and then moved back from the eroding cliff in 1999.
David and Barbara Shaw bought Belle Tout in 2008 and spent two years renovating it until, finally, in 2010, the Belle Tout Lighthouse opened for guests as a unique bed and breakfast.

The Story of the Belle Tout LighthouseRead more
Belle Tout has a fascinating history, from our Neolithic ancestors and Roman farming, through to the brave acts of Parson Darby and "Mad Jack" Fuller's influence that led to the first temporary lighthouse being built.
Rob Wassell's book was the first book specifically about the Belle Tout Lighthouse and includes pictures and facts that many people will not have seen. It's an interesting and captivating read about one of Britain's most unique buildings.
The Story of the Belle Tout Lighthouse is available to buy at the lighthouse, at the Beachy Head Visitor Centre, at the National Trust shop in Birling Gap or on-line.
