# Longstone Lighthouse

The Longstone Lighthouse, or Outer Farne as it was first called, is situated on Longstone Rock, one of the Outer Staple Islands.

Sail out to this isolated Lighthouse in the beautiful Farne Islands, famous for the daring rescue of survivors of the Forfarshire shipwreck by the Lighthouse Keeper and his daughter, William and Grace Darling, in 1838.

Visitors can view Grace's tiny bedroom from where she spotted nine survivors desperately clinging to the rocks. Despite a raging storm, the Darlings launched the lighthouse boat and rescued the survivors, caring for them in the lighthouse for two days until the storm subsided.

The Longstone Tour
The Longstone tour includes a 30-min tour (approx) of the inside of the lighthouse, a cruise around the Farne Islands to view the seabirds and the famous Grey Seal colony, with full commentary en-route. Trip lasts approx 2 hours.

Landing/opening of the lighthouse is at the boatman's discretion in line with Health and Safety Regulations.

Tours of Longstone Lighthouse are organised by Golden Gate Boats under licence from the Corporation of Trinity House.
