Staying on Lundy

Are Landmarks accessible for people with disabilities or limited mobility?
Some of our Landmarks are suitable for people with disabilities or limited mobility. However, many Landmarks have steep or narrow staircases, uneven floors and thresholds, changes of level, low ceilings or beams, as well as indistinct colours on steps and in corridors.
We recommend that you call
Booking Enquiries on 01628 825925 if you would like to find out the suitability of a particular Landmark for anyone with a specific disability. Further information on access when visiting Lundy can be found here:

-
Are Landmarks only available as self-catering accommodation?
Yes, Landmarks are only available as self-catering accommodation. We occasionally offer bed and breakfast subject to property availability, with breakfast being served in the Marisco Tavern.
-
Do you provide catering?
We do not provide catering, however, the Marisco Tavern is normally open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Please check the notice board on arrival for opening times.
-
Do you allow dogs?
Dogs are not permitted on Lundy except assistance dogs.
-
Can I bring a pet?
Lundy is a working farm with large numbers of ewes and lambs at certain times of the year. For this reason we cannot allow you to bring dogs or pets (except assistance dogs) when travelling to, or staying on, the island.
-
What time can I arrive and what time do I have to depart from the Landmark?
Your arrival and departure time on the island will be governed by the arrival and departure time of MS Oldenburg or the helicopter. Your property will be ready by 4pm, however, this can often be earlier. You must vacate your property by 10am.
-
Am I insured if I break something?
We do not carry insurance for breakages. However we appreciate that accidents do sometimes happen. If you have a breakage during your stay, please let the housekeeper know and if appropriate we reserve the right to invoice you accordingly.
-
Are Landmarks suitable for children?
Yes, most of our Landmarks are perfect for children, with gardens to play in and secret places to discover. Our furniture is surprisingly robust and we positively encourage families to stay. However, some of our buildings may not be suitable for small children; for example, some of them have steep or uneven spiral staircases. We recommend that you call the Booking Enquiries team if you would like to find out the suitability of any of our Landmarks for young children.
-
Can I get married in a Landmark?
Unfortunately, most of our Landmarks are not licensed for weddings. However, it’s possible to get married or have a wedding blessing on Lundy subject to obtaining the relevant license and/or consent. Please contact the shore office
[email protected] for further information.
-
Can I hold a big party in a Landmark?
All our larger Landmarks are perfect for gatherings of family or friends. You may invite an additional two guests to visit you during your stay, however they must not stay overnight. This is very important because our fire regulations specifically note the maximum number of people in any one building. In addition our properties are prepared, furnished and equipped for the number of people specified and greater numbers cause damage and excessive wear and tear to vulnerable buildings. Should this condition be ignored we shall make a retrospective charge per person per day (whether or not they stay overnight) for each guest over the permitted limit, the charge being pro-rated on the total cost of your booking.
-
Are there televisions in the buildings?
We deliberately do not provide televisions and find that most people appreciate this.
-
What is the mobile signal like?
There is intermittent mobile phone signal on Lundy but there is a pay phone in The Marisco Tavern.
-
Will there be sockets for my electrical appliances?
Yes, we have standard electricity sockets for UK appliances. If you are coming from outside the UK, you will need to bring your own adaptor plug(s).
