Welcome to the Beacon
Gorgeous family-owned luxury holiday home barn conversion situated on the main approach to Bigbury on Sea and with an elevated position it is one of only a small number of properties with sea views of both Bantham and Bigbury beaches and Burgh Island.
The Beacon is a family-owned, gorgeous barn conversion holiday home in Bigbury-on-Sea. It’s exceptional location means it is one of few properties in the area that have spectacular views of both Bantham and Bigbury Beaches as well as Burgh Island. It is set in a small private Court, just a 10 minute walk to Bigbury beach. A very handy courtesy car parking season ticket is available for use by guests.
Our Bigbury-on-Sea self-catering accommodation has been refurbished to create a home from home, loved by many guests who return year after year. It has a large upstairs open plan living/dining/kitchen area great for socialising and which makes the most of the gorgeous views. Downstairs are 3 bedrooms, a twin with en-suite shower room, a double room and another twin room (suited for children) and family bathroom, sleeping up to 6 in total.
Mooch across Bigbury beach to Burgh Island and The Pilchard Inn. When the tide is in, you can also take a ride on the sea tractor operated by Burgh Island Hotel, – the fare is £2.00 each way.
The third generation hydraulic Sea Tractor, is the only one in the world.
Rewind 30 years and The Shack actually housed an oyster farm people pulled up their deckchairs to tuck in.

From surfing, golf, and coastal hikes to exploring the charming Pilchard Inn, there are plenty of things to do in Bigbury-on-Sea. We also offer a courtesy car parking pass, making it easy to explore all that Bigbury-on-Sea has to offer.
The house is lovely, very well equipped with lovely views. The kitchen is superb and I enjoyed cooking there so much we never went out in the evenings to eat. The Garden also very pretty with the added bonus of vegetables across the lane in an honesty box provided by the neighbouring farm.
A bit of a walk to the beach but the property provided us with a free parking permit for the nearby field car park which was a bonus! Perfect for walkers as the Beacon sits on the coastal path.
The only downside is that the nearest shop and pub is a drive away unless you go to the Pilchard Inn on Burgh Island which is accessible by foot when tide is out.
Sunsets and views are breathtaking. Thank you The Beacon for a great stay!
