The 15th Century tower house of 'Margaret's Castle' is actually attached to our cottage - hence its name. Walk through our 'always-open' black stable door and you'll be forgiven for thinking you've fallen down the rabbit hole. Ardglass has seven castles, including four medieval tower houses, more than any other town in Ireland, which reflects its importance as Ulster's busiest port in the 15th century.
Snuggle up in one of three luxurious bedrooms, 'Inis Fraoigh', 'Inis Deala' or 'Inis Mor, ' - named after Ireland's beautiful islands. This comfortable, luxurious room contains a king-size bed and a modern ensuite shower room. Built in the oldest part of the cottage, Inis Fraoigh opens onto a colourful, private courtyard, laden with pots of geraniums and sweet pea in the summer, where you can enjoy the sun and relax.
You don't have to stay with us to enjoy our warm Irish hospitality. Now famous locally, our Afternoon Teas are the perfect way for small groups to get together in our private drawing room, overlooking the sea. In fact, we've also hosted birthday, anniversary and special occasion teas too.
For your comfort and safety, we've adapted our spacious drawing room to accommodate parties of up to four people for Afternoon Tea, enabling safe social distancing with a delicious twist.Booking in advance is essential as we bake just for you. And if you have any special dietary requirements, just let us know.

We think breakfast is the most important meal of the day and that's why we serve it upstairs, in the drawing room, overlooking the lush links of Ardglass Golf Club. Fill up on Auntie Aveen's home-baked breads or get tips on that tricky 2nd 'Howd's Hole' over an Ulster Fry - made from free range eggs from down the road.
Tee off at Ardglass Golf Course, one of the world's most spectacular links. Historic, dramatic, epic - this challenging course with its 14th Century Castle Clubhouse and stunning sea views certainly gives Royal County Down a run for its money. And the best bit? It's just across the road from Margaret's Cottage!

Absolutely love this place.!
Ciara is so warm and welcoming and we thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon tea. It was absolutely gorgeous, Ciara is an amazing baker.
We visited in December and the fire was lit and the Christmas tree was up, such a beautiful room overlooking the sea.
Would highly recommend and we are planning out next visit.
Thank you so much again Ciara for creating such a wonderful afternoon tea for myself and my three good friends, it was the perfect afternoon.

Not sure how many words I am allowed to write a review on here, So let's start with the basic's. I am a Food & Beverage Manager and throughout my career I have stayed in many good 4 to 5 start hotels and restaurants, I can absolutely 100% say Margaret"s B&B is the best place I have ever stayed and as for food it was exquisite, After talking to Ciara (the owner) I will let Ciara explain why it is named Margarets and not Ciara's. I found out Ciara has not had any huge formal training in the chef world, (hope she doesn't mind me sharing this) but I have to say, her food, baking skills are up there
