Great house and great location.
If you want to stay in - there is a great kitchen or you could barbecue on the deck; the shelves hold plenty of books, and the sofas are comfy; there are DVDs to watch. There are birds to watch, swallow nest just above the kitchen window.
If you want to go out - there is a great little hike along the river right at your door step.
'Checking in' was really easy: Tom, the manager, greeted us in Newport, guided us to the house, gave us a tour, and left us with some freshly baked scones and home-made raspberry jam.
We truly enjoyed our stay.
