“Das Frühstück war super yummy”
People say our breakfasts are delicious in all kinds of languages. We are delighted to be told that ours is the best bacon they’ve ever had. That you must have the salmon with everything, you must savour the homemade bread or try the ultimate Irish fry.
Because we know breakfast is the most important meal of the day, we go a long way to ensure it’s also the best. We chose local produce wherever possible. We serve it upstairs, in the drawing room, overlooking the lush links of Ardglass Golf Club, gathering our guests around one big table. Though if you prefer, you can enjoy a continental breakfast tray in your own room.
Just let us know what works for you. Whatever you choose, and however you like it cooked, we know that a fabulous Margaret’s Cottage breakfast will set you up for the day.
You can enjoy yours in the drawing room between 7.30am and 9 .30am, complete with freshly brewed coffee, Twinning’s breakfast tea and a mountain of granary and white toast.
Plant-based milk and vegetable spread are also available.
