The original lighthouse was painted white. In 1902 three black bands were added. Its current markings of black with two yellow bands have been in place since 1954. The color of the light was changed from white to red on 1st July 1860. The tower was originally only 14m tall. It was extended to its current dizzying height of 40m in the 1880's and is now the tallest onshore lighthouse on the Irish coast. The lighthouse was automated in 1981.

The grounds were so beautiful and it was SO peaceful and quiet. It could use a good heavy and deep clean throughout the cottage though. The bed was a bit stiff and the pillows were a tad flat and could be replaced. The small kitchen came in handy and we’re thankful they had a laundry room. Michael was so friendly and welcoming. Michaela was quick in response and communication. The grounds were lit up in the evening and was just so quaint and wonderful! We would definitely stay here again. ##### Jovita Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alicia 6 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Loved it!
