    From here you have a great view across the English Channel to France. There is a picnic area in front of the lighthouse. A nice place to stay.

      It's the new lighthouse after the old lighthouse will probably soon fall into the sea. Just walk straight up the cliff from the new lighthouse and then look left. Then you see the old lighthouse.

        There's a bar at the base of the lighthouse , a tea room, and bathrooms. Everything is well maintained. Perfect spot for a picnic with the channel view, and the European coast 🇪🇺
