All of our cottages open on to a lovely, fenced-in courtyard. Enjoy the large shared courtyard under the gazebo listening to the wild local parrots as they go about their day. Barbecue with friends and family, toss the ball for your pup, or just relax and soak up the sun in our lounge chairs.
The gazebo is the perfect spot to gather and enjoy the evening sea breeze or morning coffee.
Although our cottages have ceiling fans, tower fans and access to cool ocean breezes, it can still become uncomfortably hot during an all too common heat wave. So, in order to keep our rental rates lower for all, we have opted to provide portable a/c units for a nominal fee of USD 10/day, USD 60/week, or USD 200/month.
Each cottage comes with one off street parking place best suited for compact cars, but can accommodate small SUVs.
We offer free onsite laundry facilities and detergent.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Great place to stay with or without pets and good location to town, beaches and Cliffs.
We had two cottages. My husband and I stayed in on with our St Bernard and Border Collie. My mom and her shih tzu stayed the other. We stayed 5 days.

BHC was the best short-term rental property we have ever stayed in.
Cottage had everything we needed and nothing we didn't. The neighborhood was quiet but convenient to all things OB. Property manager Austen and his family were kind and accommodating. Property welcomes responsible pet owners. On site laundry. Lovely outdoor areas to enjoy.
Charlie, the property manager, was great. He was super helpful during our stay. The cottage was clean and well stocked with everything we needed to enjoy our time at the beach. We would stay again.
