HISTORY
The cottage has been in the same family The Corrs since it was built in 1921. The land was bought from the Earl of Howth and during the 1940s it was already a guest house run by Kathleen Corr, a widow at the time. The cottage had fallen into dereliction in the past few decades until its present owners envisioned saving this property full of history and character and restoring it into a B&B. The restoration work started in 2011. Particular attention has been paid to restoring all the original furniture and features, the use of natural materials and ensuring the B&B is as eco-friendly as possible. Guests are invited to visit our vegetable garden and egg laying hens.
We are a smoke free property however there is a designated area for smokers.
We hope to host you soon.
