O'Malley Room
time of the Great Famine. With the exception of the charming
bathroom, this comforting room is a faithful recreation of a
delightful cottage on the tranquil, southern tip of Clew Bay in
County Mayo at the Atlantic Ocean. Weathered, wide
board flooring leads past the vestibule into the combination
bedroom/ sitting area with an open hearth fireplace.
Surrounding the hearth are a rocker, spinning wheel, butter
churn, and a small turf wagon. A corner loveseat and chair
next to the queen-size bed offer a restful place to sit and
peruse the books on Irish history and poetry. A beamed
ceiling, thick plastered walls and shuttered windows complete
the scene. The charming bathroom features an antique tub
with hand-held shower, marble top sink retrofitted into a
vintage treadle-machine base and a high-tank commode, all
resting on a beautiful tiled floor. The luck of the Irish is yours!
