Marconi House was the home of Gugliamo Marconi - the genius of wireless. Marconi came here first in 1901 to live in Marconi  House. He worked on his experiments to send transatlantic messages from the house and then moved his apparatus to the higher ground of nearby Brow Head.  How uniquely exciting to be able to enjoy the progress made from his humble findings in the modern comforts of technology enjoyed in his home today.

The original house has now been converted into 4 comfortable luxury modern apartments along with sumptuous holiday cottages in mature and well tended gardens. Each accommodation consists of a well equipped kitchen including dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, iron & ironing board, TV & Stereo. Sitting/dining rooms are spacious and have comfortable seating & dining tables & chairs. Bedrooms are tastefully decorated with bed linen supplied, prepared and ready for your arrival. Bathrooms are supplied with hand and bath towels. ( NO BEACH OR BOAT TOWELS SUPPLIED). The owner has thoughtfully supplied little extras for your comfort in the way of reading material, some board games and videos/DVDs. You can put your barbeque skills to the test  & enjoy a fun night  in comfortable surroundings in your sheltered garden.
