Reviews
"Was good to find this great view point"
"Great spot to watch the sunset, walk with the dog or just watch the world go by."
"A wonderful place to see fantastic views"
"Lovely place. Park on the street and walk down a small path to the pebble beach. Great for dog walking. Someone mentioned being signposted toward the private village. This is the former National Sea Training School, which is now flats."
"Its a nice little spot, but the Google maps directions lead you to a "private village" which I'm guessing is retirement housing. There's nowhere really to park other than on the street and there's a public footpath that leads down to the lighthouse"
