Cabin
The Cabin at The Cottage Hotel was salvaged from the famoush ship The Herzogin Cecilie. This four-masted windjammer, once one of the most famous and fastest sailing ships of its time, tragically ran aground in Soarmill Cove in 1906.
The remains of the ship were carefully salvaged, and parts of its interior now serve as a unique feature in The Cabin, preserving the memory of this historic vessel and adding a distinctive charm to the hotel. The story of The Herzogin Cecilie adds depth and character to The Cabin, making it a truly special place to relax and reflect and enjoy a drink.
