This property is a very quaint older home turned into a bed-and-breakfast. We loved the facility and the staff was very nice. The only negative was that unknown to us, our room was on the first floor next to the dining area and parlor meeting rooms and other things so we were woken up by noise very early in the morning. If you were to stay on the second floor, I would give this five stars.

This was the perfect place to stay in Newport. It was just far enough outside of the busy downtown area yet walkable to it in the nice fall weather. Being steps away from the cliff walk was great. The staff was so friendly and helpful and the breakfast was delicious. We stayed in the garden suite which had a massive jacuzzi tub with fireplace and tv. We’ll definitely be staying here again!
