There are large comfy porches, fresh baked cookies, and wonderful hosts. It was my first time staying at a B&B in the U.S. and it was wonderful. My boyfriend ordered the couples package which was amazing. Just thinking about our stay makes me feel relaxed. The hosts are also excellent at finding just the right places for you to go... more

“A Hidden Treasure” What a delight! Both the charm of the cottage and the owners made our stay a true retreat. Not only were Steve and Marie-Louise hospitable, they went above and beyond to ensure our stay was everything they promised it to be. Each morning we were greeted with homemade recipes and spent our evenings enjoying a glass of... more

My husband and I (and our daughter and son-in-law) had a relaxing five-night stay at the Barclay Cottage Bed & Breakfast in Virginia Beach. The innkeepers, Steve and Marie-Louise, were knowledgeable and informative hosts with a wonderful sense of humor. They rank "tops" in hospitality! The inn built in 1895 has an interesting history and is a few minutes' walk... more

I was recently a guest of Marie Louise and Steve LaFond at the Barclay Cottage in VA Beach. My third stay there felt like I was returning home. It's hard to say whether the impeccable accommodations and amenities (nothing is forgotten), the personal service (Marie Louise hemmed by pants) or the awesome breakfast make this my only choice in VA... more

A most wondeful place to stay in Virginia Beach is Barclay Cottage...you will not find more charm than at Barclay. Steve and Marie-Louise are amazing hosts that make your stay in Virgina Beach nothing but delightful.

My wife and I are innkeepers in Cape May, NJ and are always looking for nice B&B's when we travel. Trip Advisor has been quite helpful in picking them out. We were enroute to Wilmington, NC and stopped over in Virginia Beach for one night on the way. I have to say we were quite impressed with Marie Louise and... more

The LaFond's could be easily described as perfect Innkeepers. From a warm welcome to perfect service during the stay and profound tips for our trip, their hospitality was outstanding. Not to mention the house with its unique charme in a vibrant Virginia Beach. Stephen even raised the flag of our home country at Barclay during our stay. One unique experience,... more

We do appreciate your taking the time to post a review from your stay with us. Steve loves to "raise the flag" in honor of our guests' home countries. Thank you for noticing that and for mentioning it.

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful weekend at this hidden gem in Virginia Beach. The Cottage is located close to the Oceanfront and restaurants. The service was spectacular and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The rooms were clean and exuded a quiet charm. The Inn Keepers saw to every detail and they quickly became close friends you could... more
