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!

Spring weekend with friends
Ideal location for touring Newport. Home was a little quirky with its uneven floors and unique bedroom arrangements on the 3rd floor, although it was as-advertised and is a charming. Home was a historic 1810 build -- before many of the Newport mansions were built! Had six adults using the "facilities," which caused slow-draining showers and some concern over some unexpected discharge into the yard. Owner provided a "snake" since they were temporarily unavailable -- which we did not have to use, fortunately! Parking was a little bit of a challenge since it was first come, first serve street parking.

MEMORIES ABOUND!
What a truly perfect setting to host a girls’ Bachelorette weekend… full of laughter and fun! The decor and space were so awesome! We just loved the charm of such a historic home. Everything was within walking distance… sites, shops, restaurants, and dancing! The memories will last a lifetime! Thank you to the VRBO hosts for having such a perfect spot to enjoy Newport!

Lovely Stay in the Heart of Newport
Needed a simple getaway from Boston and chose this charming rental in the heart of Newport. The rental had everything we needed, good wifi to work remotely, and close to pretty much every thing we could ask for. Parking was easy on the street, we could walk the dog to a park 5 houses away, the beach and cliff walks were maybe a 10 min walk at most, and coffee and great food in every direction. Every bit of the home was perfectly cleaned and fresh when we arrived. The only complaint is that memorial drive can be a bit busy with traffic noise, but very bearable. Will likely use this getaway again!! Thanks for a great stay!!!

Great town
The town of Newport is adorable. The location of the property is great, although it is on a busy loud corner. The home is located with easy accessibility to the cliff walk and down to the restaurants, shopping and water. The home is old and completely run down. Upon entering the home, there is an area rug that is filthy and stained. The home is charming since it was built in the 1800's but hasn't been mantained well. The home slants quite a bit which wasn't a problem at all, it actually added to the charm. The upstairs bathroom has mold growing on the ceiling near the shower and the bathtub hadn't been cleaned properly as there were clumps of hair in the drain. In the master bath there were no proper bath towels, rather beach like towels. The third floor has some odd addition so one of the hallways is probably five feet tall as you are trying to make your way to one of the bedrooms. The kitchen felt poorly equipped and we found it challenging to cook a meal there. They did have a washer and dryer which was great! I would not recommend or come back to this home.
