The Inn is just getting very run down. The Irish Pub/Restaurant is showing its age. We paid a lot for a sub par hotel.

Convenient parking, easy check in and a very friendly staff. Love the decor in and around the cottage. The Guinness was proper and the food was tip top! Andrea’s did a great job with the Sea Shanty as always. We’ve never had a bad experience. Thank you Irish Cottage for staying consistent ☘️

We were very irritated with housekeeping. We had our do not disturb sign on the door but was awaken to housekeeping banging so hard on the door very early in the morning. It was very loud and unnecessary.
