About this property

The Cottage on Hancock - entire historic cottage

This private historic cottage (c. 1850) is located in the heart of historic downtown New Bern and steps away from shopping, dining, and the waterfront. The cottage was originally a law office and sits on the property of the historic Coor-Cook residence (c. 1790), listed on the New Bern Architectural Walking Tour.

Guests have access to the entire cottage- one bedroom with queen-sized bed. Full bathroom. Eat-in kitchen. Separate living room. WiFi. Onsite parking for 1 vehicle.

Please note:
-there is an active train track in Hancock Street. The train comes by most days and some night. It does not blow a horn.
-the cottage sits next to our family residence which includes two very friendly cats who roam the property.
-guests do not have access to the backyard of the main house; however, the cottage has its own small front yard space with a patio table and two chairs.
-both the cottage and the main house next door are historic structures that require ongoing exterior routine maintenance and repairs (wood rot repair, painting, etc.). Host will make every attempt to limit the disruption this may cause guests, but guests should be aware prior to booking.

Felt like home
I stayed here two nights in a work trip. The cottage was clean and comfortable. The owners were welcoming and let me know they were there for any questions I might have. Great experience! The downtown area is lovely and within walking distance from the cottage

A Wonderful Visit
This Cottage is very special. I hope we can return again. My husband and I had a great weekend. It was peaceful and quiet. Very relaxing. The weather was so nice, and we walked to most places enjoying the spring flowers and the history of New Bern.

Great Place to Stay in New Bern
This was a weekend getaway for us and the place was just what we were hoping for. It was very clean, very convenient to local restaurants and places of interest. Jessica, our host, checked in on us several times but everything we needed she had already provided. We would recommend this property and we would love to stay here again.
