A cute cottage located near Beaufort's charming downtown. One can stroll to town if desired. I recommend walking in the direction of town if heading out on a stroll; the houses are very attractive and historic nearer to town. We felt safe walking during the day (never ventured out at night). This route was also good for walking a pup. In February, the streets were not terribly busy so it was a pleasure to take leisurely strolls and chat with locals. Note: for dog walkers, there are MANY barking, overly interested dogs kept in yards in the area BUT fortunately they remained within their fences when we passed by. Having a fenced in back yard for our pup was welcome. There are apartments in close proximity across a fence; happily there was absolutely no loud music nor disruption from the apartments during our visit. Our host was swift to respond to and fulfill our requests for a tea kettle and conventional coffeemaker which was very appreciated. If one cooks a great deal, the kitchen supplies were on the sparse side (plenty of plates, cutlery, etc but there could have been more pots and pans, a colander, etc). The master bedroom bed was comfortable. Internet was strong and quick. It's a nice, attractive property. We enjoyed our stay very much!
