Historic District Cottage Suite with a Fresh, Youthful Decor.
- Minimum stay:2 nights
- Internet:Yes
- Pets allowed:No
- Wheel chair accessible:No
The Brockington Hall Cottage Suite is a cozy and different little inn in Savannah’s Historic District. Situated on a quiet tree-lined, brick-paved street of beautiful residences, it is within a block and a half from Forsyth Park and of the Mansion on Forsyth Park. It is also within walking distance (for spry people!) of most of Savannah’s famous sites.
Located about 25 blocks from the center of the City, and redone and opened in March of 2012, your Cottage Suite includes a large living room/dining room combination, a separate kitchen, a bedroom, and a small but well-appointed bath.
The decorating in your cottage suite is fresh and young, with most of the furnishings being from IKEA. There's a table for 4 with tableware, two flat-screen TVs, two IKEA lounge chairs with footstools, basic kitchen equipment, and quality linens on the new Serta queen-sized bed. Your cottage is private, with its own security system.
The informality of the Cottage Suite’s design and furnishings and its modest rental rate make it especially well-suited to the young at heart who wish to enjoy the grandeur of Savannah itself without staying in a formal space. A full kitchen with facilities for light cooking is provided, and you can bring home your treats from Savannah’s many fine restaurants for later snacks. You can cook your own breakfast or have breakfast nearby in the Cafe at Forsyth Park, which has Starbucks coffee. A Kroger grocery store is a block away down the lane, and Johnny Ganem's wine and liquor store is three blocks away.
The main house is located in a tastefully-renovated 16th Century Classic Italianate villa-style mansion built in 1882 which houses an event venue and private apartments as well. You can see more about the building on our website, Brockington Hall, and on our Facebook page, Brockington Hall Event Venue and Inn.
There are plenty of pillows and many additional comforts. All textiles are new as of 2012, and the mattress and pillows have special coverings for your protection.
A Tassimo coffee-maker is provided, with coffee, tea, sugars, Splenda, and creamer.
In addition to the private entrance, the Cottage Suite has wireless Internet access and cable TV service. You will have use of Brockington Hall’s shared courtyard and of our shared laundry facility (where use of the machines is free), off-street parking for one vehicle, and maid service at a reasonable frequency after a two-night’s stay, if requested.
The Cottage Suite is a smoke-free facility. Smoking is allowed outside the building.
A two night minimum stay is required, but we'd love for you to be our guests for an extended stay as well.
We will be pleased to show you the event venue if it is not in use. And you can roam at will, on foot or otherwise, in Savannah's Historic and Victorian Landmark Districts.

My husband and I enjoyed a few days in this Savannah cottage and had a fab time. We walked to the river for dinner and took a bike/rickshaw home.. We felt safe and were very comfortable. You will not find a home base for exploring Savannah..I also like the long-haired Siamese I occasionally encountered...made me feel at home.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, age 55+, romantic getaway.

We loved this cottage!!! The owner, Lee, was very helpful and friendly. The neighborhood was quiet and close to the grocery store. It was only a 20 minute enjoyable walk to the heart of downtown Savannah. The cottage was fully equipped with everything you would need, super clean and at a bargain price! We would highly recommend this cottage.Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, age 55+, romantic getaway.

We rolled into Savannah around noon, earlier than expected, and Lee met us on short notice, showed us the cottage, and made us feel welcome. The unit is clean and comfortable, the wifi excellent, and the location perfect for exploring historic Savannah. We walked to Forsyth Park, just a block away, and continued down to the riverfront, no more than a 15 minute stroll, and with each block, historic buildings and locales appeared one after another. We will return next year and stay longer. Two days is not long enough to take it all in. Thank you Lee.Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, age 55+, romantic getaway.

Hey everyone, I would highly recommend this great place for your next visit to Savannah. The hosts were amazing and were there to meet us and even let us check in a bit earlier than we had planned. They gave a great run through of all that was in the cottage and we felt very comfortable and welcomed. The lady who takes care of the place, Mary is her name was a great help as well and we were most thankful because she was able to help us out with getting our car problems taken care of..THANKS MARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The neighborhood is amazing and there is a grocery store one block away and also downtown is within walking distance. The cottage was very clean and well taken care of and thanks to Lee and Melissa for being great hosts. When we come back to Savannah we will make sure we book here..... and by the way everyone should go to Clary's Restaurant just a few blocks away for breakfast or lunch...great food !!!!!!!!!Recommended for: Tourists without a car, romantic getaway.

The cottage was perfect for my wife and I. Kroger is just out the backdoor. Forsyth Park is about a block from the cottage. My wife and I chose to walk most places including to River St. (about 12 blocks) but there is so much history to see between the cottage and River St. that we couldn't pass up by doing the drive. The cottage was very well prepared with all the amenities plus a few extras like the coffee, butter, soda, and bottled water. Thank you for such a pleasant relaxing couple of days!Recommended for: Sightseeing, romantic getaway.

It was clean and comfortable and a great respite from the Savannah heat; comfy bed and kitchen with all you needed, the coffee was a bonus :). It is a long walk to River Street area, we drove and parked- maybe in better weather (100 degrees when we were there), but we did venture out for 15 minute walks to restaurants and the Civil Rights Museum and things in between. We felt safe overall, though it is on the edge of the safer area; owners were quick to point out the best ways to walk. We didn't stress about keeping blinds down for privacy as it also kept the heat out, I didn't book it for the room with a view idea. Only frustration was after booking and paying I couldn't get a response by email from the owners, when they had emailed prior to booking...wasn't the end of the world though. If I didn't stay again it is purely location and desire for something different, but this is definitely a stone's throw from Forsyth Park and a Kroger, and a parking spot is great. It is obvious they are working hard to renovate the whole home and love what they do.Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, romantic getaway.

We found this cottage suite to be perfect for a romantic get-away. Everything you could need is provided, even yummy coffee. Very thoughtful touches throughout, like mints and toiletries you may have forgotten to pack (for me it was make-up remover). Decor is perfect and bed was comfortable. Great location close to everything! We can't wait to go back!!!Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, age 55+, romantic getaway.

Thoroughly recommend a stay in the cottage at brockington hall. Lee was more than just a rental owner, upon arrival we were shown round the entire function space of the main house. Beautiful! Great location, easy walking distance, very useful to have parking ready and available. Cottage/studio space was perfect size for the two of us, with all necessary and even EXTRA trimmings! Wish we could have stayed longer!!Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, romantic getaway.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2012
About the owner: My wife and I are empty-nester lawyers who inherited this fine property from my father in 2007. After renovating the parlor floor for use as an event venue, we opened one inn in the building, and effective March 2012, will put this cottage suite into service.
Why the Owner Chose Savannah:
We have lived in Savannah's adjacent Victorian District for 34 years, raising our family there and working in the Historic District. I have been the President of Historic Savannah Foundation and of the Downtown Neighborhood Association, and we are striving to make Brockington Hall properly maintain the historic character and feel so unique to Savannah, while opening the 4,000 square foot parlor floor for tasteful and festive events, as you can see on our our FaceBook page, Brockington Hall Event Venue and Inn. The balance of the building contains my office, five apartments, and one inn-suite, with this 'cottage' suite in the adjacent carriage house. Please come see us!
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage:
The unique benefits of this suite, at this price, are its privacy, its furnishings and decor, and its location. The suite is ideal for those who are seeking a more relaxed feel, rather than a 'period' feel, and for those who want to walk or travel inexpensively in Savannah's beautiful Historic and Victorian National Landmark Districts.
