The Wayside Inn is itself a beautiful old home - not as big as one of Newport's famous mansions but with its own classic interiors, a jewel. Its location right on Bellevue Avenue permits you to walk north to downtown and restaurants, marina, etc. or walk south to the mansions. Lorraine is a charming host who is pleased to talk with you and can give you plenty of local history or recommendations. And continental breakfast may include some homemade blueberry muffins by friend Gail, yum.
