MEANING OF SWABBY
‘Swabby’ is a classic World War II–era Navy nickname for a Sailor — especially the hardworking deckhands who kept the ship spotless and shipshape. The term carries a sense of camaraderie, tradition, and life at sea, making it a fitting namesake for a cottage perched right on the ocean’s edge. Swabby Cottage embraces that same spirit: simple, timeless, and always ready for a day on the water.
