I would highly recommend Jolee Cottage! It's in a quiet neighborhood and there's off street parking. It's also in a great location because it's within walking distance to downtown Jamestown, which has quality restaurants and cute shops. (Slice of Heaven was good for breakfast.) And it's about 15 minutes from downtown Newport. (Bring money for tolls.) The cottage has fantastic views of the ocean and the Newport Bridge which is pretty during the day and at night. The house itself is beautifully decorated, clean, and cozy and the bed is very comfortable. It also has a really nice gas fireplace downstairs, which I loved. In terms of things to do, I had never been to the mansions in Newport or done the Cliff Walk and am so happy I did both. Last but not least, Jo and her husband are lovely. They give you your space but are accessible if you need them. I appreciate that they have a one-night minimum stay and that their place is so affordable. I'm already looking forward to going back!
