General Information

Ocean breezes, home baking, verandas with wicker chairs and rockers all await you at Barclay Cottage Bed and Breakfast. We look forward to welcoming you to our romantic Victorian Inn. Built in 1895, a school for 50 years, and accepting guests since 1917, it is the most historic lodging facility in Hampton Roads. Located on a quiet street in a residential neighborhood, it is just a two minute walk to the ocean and the hustle bustle of the resort area. The Cottage is completely modernized with such conveniences as jetted spa tubs and free WIFI, yet has antique furniture and hand made quilts, bringing you the feeling of yesterday with the comfort of today. Relax on our porches and patios, rock in a rocking chair or curl up with a book in one of our reading nooks and leave your cares behind.
