About this property
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 was built in the late 1800s after the recent "unpleasantness". This cottage is so cheerful and has such a sweet spirit, a bad mood will disappear very quickly. Lovely views are all around.
Bonny Cottage has one bedroom with a comfy queen bed and a large bathroom with a shower, a full kitchen and laundry room. 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.)

About the host
Hosted by Ellen and Mike Tomy
Ellen and Mike Tomy are the owners of Bonny Cottage located on their property 1103 Craven Street, Beaufort, SC. The main house, where Ellen and Mike live, was renovated in 2015 and the cottage was recently renovated in 2019. Mike is a retired architect and a decorated Viet-nam veteran. Ellen is a retired portrait painter.
Why they chose this property
Vacations from Atlanta down to Beaufort every summer to visit family, we bought this property because of our love for architecture, history and Beaufort itself. Ellen's family roots are in South Carolina so it is like coming home to stay.
What makes this property unique
One cannot but feel the presence of happiness and contentment when entering Bonny Cottage. Even before it was renovated, with holes in its floors and dilapidated nature, it was cheerful.
