Coastguard Lookout is an old building and though built to the Coastguard Agency Standards, it sits in a very extreme and exposed position on the beach, which is one of its virtues, but also exposes it in storms to water ingress no matter what construction details are used. Both doors on the North East elevation utilise a storm section profile and water bars at ground level but in extreme north easterly storms water can penetrate these precautions. 

Please note: If you wish to hold a photo shoot or a TV/Film production at this property an additional fee will apply. The necessary licences must also be obtained from The Dungeness Estate http://www.dungenessestate.co.uk/
Anyone who is found to hold such an event without permission or the relevant licences will be charged retrospectively.

Fantastic get away!
Such an awesome place to stay and get away to. Fabulous change of scene after the monotony of lockdown. The tower was very well equipped and comfortable. So wonderful to step out right onto the beach and we loved looking out at the view from the different levels. Would definitely recommend and hope to stay again

Aussergewöhnlich atemberaubend
Der seit 1997 in privatem Besitz und im Bauhaus Stil umgebaute Turm der Küstenwache ist hochwertig, aber spartanisch eingerichtet. Man muss sich auf viele Treppenwege einrichten, bekommt dafür aber wahrhaft grandiose Ausblicke auf den englischen Kanal und den sich ständig verändernden Himmel. Die Umgebung ist, ebenfalls puristisch. Roh und dünn besiedelt erinnerte sie uns an einen Aussenposten in Kanada.
