A Memorable Week…..

This week has indeed been a memorable week for the Cottage Hotel and the Ireland Family, with the christening of William and Lucia’s son, Maximilian Alexander Ireland at St. Clements Church in Hope Cove.

Earlier in the week some of our hotel guests were fortunate enough to see a large naval battleship sailing close to the shores of Hope Cove.  It was an impressive sight to see the scale and detail of the ship from The Cottage Hotel lounges.

A Wintery Week......

With much of the UK under a blanket of snow earlier this week, it was unusual to find a dusting on the beaches of Hope Cove.  Sadly, it didn’t last long enough for us to capture a photograph.  Temperatures are slowly rising again and the daffodils are just starting to appear, ready for the warmth of spring.  The Cottage Hotel hosted the 40^th Anniversary Luncheon of the Silverhill Women’s Institute this week and will welcoming Kingsbridge Twinning Association for their annual lunch this Sunday.  With only a couple of weeks left of March, why not take a last-minute break at The Cottage Hotel and take advantage of our Winter Tariffs (for further details, please contact our Reservations Team).
