This was our third stay at Bonny Cottage. It is such a lovely place to stay, and right in the middle of the historic district. Everything is a short pretty walk away. I cannot imagine staying anywhere else in Beaufort.

Bonny Cottage was all we hoped it would be. Perfectly situated in the historical district of Beaufort. Walking distance to downtown, the waterfront and beautiful neighborhoods. Ellen was kind and helpful in getting us settled, and providing us information about the cottage and area. Highly recommend this cottage and owners.

Best little cottage I’ve ever rented in Beaufort. Very close to everything downtown. Very charming and comfortable. I see us renting from these owners every year. Now that we’ve found this little gem, not sure we’ll rent anywhere else.

This trip we stayed in the little cottage on the property - a charming place in a perfect location in the historic area. The cottage was absolutely immaculate and everything was in perfect order. In the bedroom, the bed was comfortable and the bathroom was beautiful with a large shower cubicle. (It was a joy to shower in there!) The cottage is well-equipped with anything you may need, including a washer & dryer - so helpful after hot days spent out and about. We will definitely stay here again! Many thanks to our lovely host!

Perfect location and wonderful in every way, except the bed which sunk in the middle when occupied. Made it difficult to situate oneself to sleep. Otherwise was a great place.
