The Woodlawn Inn is an inn and restaurant at 420 Division St in Cobourg, set in a Regency-style mansion dating to 1835. The building sits in Cobourg’s historic district, so the stay has more of a country-inn character than a chain-hotel feel. The inn also has an outdoor garden courtyard and historic dining rooms, giving the property a stay-and-dine focus rather than only a place to sleep.

Rooms include ensuite bathrooms, mini fridges, coffeemakers, free Wi-Fi, and flat-screen TVs. Some upgraded rooms and suites add features such as balconies, whirlpool tubs, sitting areas with fireplaces, or antique furnishings. Those details matter here because the room experience can range from a straightforward inn room to a more characterful room with extra space or period-style touches.

The stay works well for travelers who want meals handled in the same building. Continental breakfast is included and served in a dining room with a fireplace, and the property also has a restaurant, a lounge bar, and a wine cellar. Parking is free on site, with parking areas noted for hotel and dining guests.

The Woodlawn Inn also places guests within walking distance of several Cobourg points that can affect the stay, including Cobourg Beach, which is about 14 minutes away on foot. The property is also listed as being in Cobourg’s historic district, close to downtown amenities, so it suits a stay where the building, dining, parking, and train access are part of the decision.
