Beauclaires is a cozy Victorian bnb with a serious breakfast. With a comfortable bed and a short walk to the beach it was the perfect place to spend a few days decompressing.

Just an incredible, romantic home seconds walk from the beach with shopping in the other direction. Sadly we arrived late but still had several delish options for late night dining! Our host was warm and so accommodating. We loved everything about this beautiful home. And the stuffed French toast for breakfast was decadent and the perfect start to our day! I would’ve loved to have been able to stay longer!!
