I have 3x delightfully restored beach cottages in South Redondo a block from the beach-located on the same grounds as the other beach cottages (BBC2 & BBC3).
The Burnham Beach Cottage(s) was built at the turn of the century originally as a B&B.
We are a unique property so please feel free to email me with any questions or requests.
Simply put……a B&B experience with the privacy & independence of a vacation rental…...
This cottage comprises of 1 bedroom, living room with comfy queen-size sofa/futon bed, fully equipped kitchen, bathroom with clawfoot tub/shower and grounds where you can BBQ, relax around the fit-pits or just taking in the evening sunsets on your porch. You will be provided with fresh flowers, ironed bed linens, bath & beach towels, wi-fi, TV,DVD, iron & ironing-board, bubble-bath & bath salts so as to enjoy the claw-foot tub to the fullest.
Please note the cottage is ideal for 2 but can accommodate 4.
Enjoy the ocean & views within minutes from the cottage. Walk,stroll,jog or ride the coastline path that starts here in Redondo and goes all the way to Malibu; ...easily engage in surfing, swimming, volleyball, walking, running, skating, biking, hiking....there's heaps to do in these beach cities & the list continues....art/food/music festivals, outdoor movies in the parks/on the beach, international volleyball tournaments to watch, or if you would rather just relax in our gardens or on the beach and do nothing... you can do that too...

We are a quintessential SoCal beach town,close to LA without being in the hectic rush of LA. All is easily accessible by freeways, public transportation, sightseeing tours pick-up at local hotel.

About owner/property manager
I am a fun easy going person. I have traveled & lived in other countries fairly extensively. Love People and enjoy all that life has to offer! I have had 20+ years in the the hospitality business, many of those years specializing in the B&B field-so I know how to make your stay special.
owner/property manager purchased this Cottage in 2005
Why owner/property manager chose South Redondo
I particularly love restoring older properties so when I came across the Burnham House & Cottages with all it's historic history it was impelling to want to restore and bring back to life all the workmanship so often found in these older homes.... It certainly is most rewarding now to sit back and have others enjoy what has been re-created. Being so close to the beach is also most delightful and certainly well enjoyed. With my years of running Bed & Breakfast Inns & my enjoyment to meet people from all walks of live it provided to be a perfect marriage. I love that I have a historic landmark that is only 2 blocks to the beach and that I have provided such an enjoyable & peaceful environment for anyone that wants to indulge. There are great spacious grounds with little cottages sprinkled amongst the grounds where you can snuggle up on a big garden wicker chair and read a book, a snooze in the hammock or an evening around the fire-pit snipping fine wine and eating a pork chop.... I love taking a long walk in the morning along the beach and watching the surfers & dolphins mingle & the whales migrating in March/April. ***The sunsets are amazing and truly lovely to enjoy...very relaxing***.

Perfect California Beach Destination
Wendy’s cottages were perfect!! A friend and I stayed for about 9 days in one of her cottages while we training and played beach volleyball in nearby Hermosa Beach. We were lucky and got to use the bikes free of charge all week long which was a real life saver since we didn’t have a car. The location is great, quiet neighborhood but close to lots of places to eat and the redondo pier. The setup was exactly what we were looking for and Wendy and other guests were very accommodating. She even let us do a load of laundry free of charge. Highly recommend Wendy and her cottages!
Cottage is accesible to the beach, retaurants, etc. Location of cottage is very quiet, nice neighbor
Our stay was very relaxing in a nice, quiet location. Cottage was a little on the small side but large enough for two people.
Walk to the beach and pier is a quick 5 minutes. Walk to Wholefoods and other shops about 10 minutes.
No complaints.
Wonderful
Wonderful place and close to the beach
Cozy cottage
We recently returned from a 5 day stay in Redondo Beach and enjoyed our stay in this cozy cottage. Wendy and her team of Katie and Caroline were very helpful and quick to respond to emails. We were able to check in early, which was a great bonus, and Caroline (on site) was very welcoming and extremely helpful. We enjoyed exploring the beach, bike trails and up and down the west coast of SoCal and this was a great location to do it from.
Wonderful place with wonderful host
This was our third time at the Burnham and next time we are back in the area we will stay here again. Wendy is a wonderful host and the beach is so close at hand.
Lovely Place
This is the second time I have had the pleasure of staying here. It is very private, the kitchen is well equipped, and the bed is very comfortable. The outdoor seating area is a major plus. It is a pleasant walk to the beach, also a major plus.
Location
Bike path from Redondo Beach to Santa Monica and even Malibu if you are so ambitious! Full/1/2 day sails from RB Marina-walking distance from cottage. Whale Watching in March/April. Farmer's Market every Thursday at the RB pier- a block away. Redondo Beach Pier a block away- Also all within walking distance tide pools, Library. Seaside Lagoon. Wilderness Park.
