A lighting fixture includes a modular lamp assembly and a lighting fixture comprising a mounting plate and lamp holder affixed to the mounting plate. The lamp holder has flexible retaining members which extend away from the mounting plate. The retaining members have respective securing means to secure the modular lamp assembly at a fixed angle relative to the mounting plate. A flange on the lamp holder guides an electrical cord. This arrangement allows safe and convenient replacement of the modular lamp assembly. A skirt affixed to the mounting plate protects the lamp holder and modular lamp assembly and provides an aesthetically pleasing appearance. The lighting fixture may be readily mounting to hardscape or wooden construction. A strain relief for the electrical cord in the lighting fixture includes an elastic plug and stopper molded to the cord as a single body, and fits into a hole in the flange.
