Historic Bonny Cottage in downtown Beaufort SC

Bonny Cottage is located on the property of Ellen and Mike Tomy, one block from the Beaufort River, in the beautiful historic district of Beaufort, South Carolina.

It stands alone and has a pleasant patio outside for early morning coffee and late afternoon wine and cheese. Children under 12 are not allowed. Check-in is at 4:00 pm, Check-out is at 10:00 am.
***(In these precarious times, we suggest guests purchase travelers insurance.)(Note: The living room furniture is antique and moderately comfortable.)
