About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Historic 4-Bedroom Home in the Heart of Newport

This historic home is in the center of Newport. Restaurants and stores are right across the street. First Beach is less than a mile walk in one direction while the Newport Wharves, with more restaurants, shops and night life are ½ of a mile in the other direction. You will be in the center of all that Newport has to offer while enjoying all of the amenities of a comfortable, well-stocked home that is professionally cleaned between guests.

Your home is adjacent to the home of your host, who is happy to help if there is anything you need. Yet you will have complete privacy, and the home to yourself.

Be aware that you are in the middle of a city that is bustling in the summertime. Normally, this location is fairly quiet, but there can be times when there is noise coming from the street. This historic home is on three levels and the stairways are narrow and steep, so this cannot be considered an accessible home. Additionally, the stairs onto the third-floor lead into the main third floor bedroom, and from there you will access the other two bedrooms on the third floor, meaning that those using the other two bedrooms will need to walk through the main third floor bedroom to get to their bedrooms. The third-floor bathroom is equally accessible to all three bedrooms on the third floor. Please make sure this is appropriate for you and your guests.

From May 1st to October 1st, we will provide two guest passes so that you can park your car(s) on the street in Newport. Often this means parking across the street from the house, but in the busier seasons you may need to look around for a spot. There is also nearby public parking available. From Oct 2nd to April 30th, guest passes are not required and anyone can park on the residential streets in Newport without a pass. It is vital that you return the guest pass to us and we will charge $125 if it is not returned.

Please note that there are residents living in the area and it is important that you are able to keep the noise to a minimum and otherwise respect the neighbors. Parties are not allowed that are larger than ten people. Smoking and vaping are strictly prohibited. If these rules are broken, you will be immediately evicted and charged a minimum fee of $250.

We are happy to have your pets as long as they are well behaved, do not mark the home in any way and are not on the furniture. There is an additional fee if you bring your pet. Please be sure to register your pet and pay the fee when booking. True service animals are welcome free of charge.

This is truly the most conveniently located spot in Newport. We are looking forward to hosting you!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Awesome location!

Great location in Newport; able to walk to shops and attractions. The drawbacks were: 1. The dishwasher did not work. Contacted the owner/manager in the AM via text and did not hear back until the evening. 2. One of the extra chairs that was to be used around dining table was broken so not all of the party could be in eating at the same time. 3. Limited toilet tissue. There were 8 women and about 1 1/2 rolls per bathroom for our stay. The house is cute and the beds were VERY comfortable and all of us rested well. We had a fun time there celebrating my sister’s 60th birthday!

Cozy place with excellent location

Comfortable and charming little place that was centrally located to all we wanted to do or see in Newport. It met all of our needs and we would stay here again. It housed seven of us and everyone was happy. (As others pointed out, people who have never been in houses built over 150 years ago may not understand or appreciate what that original construction may look like inside.)

Very clean!

Very nice house with plenty of beds and areas to sit for multiple guest's. I’ve been coming to Newport for a long time and this was on of best stay. Parking passes are very helpful because the neighborhoods are narrow and not a lot of spots. Church St lot is a 10 minute walk and can part over night if needed and short walk to everything.

Great Location!

We stayed here for 3 nights for my BIL’s wedding with our 3year old, SIL + BF, and my 70yr old in laws. Outside of a toilet backup (addressed relatively quickly by hosts), we had a great stay. The central location can’t be beat. Would definitely recommend to anyone who’s comfortable staying in an old historic home that is quirky but well kept.
