What a gem of a home! The place is so inviting as soon as you enter. It's tastefully decorated and has the feel of a friend's home rather than a cold hotel. There are small, personal touches throughout that bring out this cottage's personality. The kitchen is well appointed, so if you are staying for a few days you have everything you need to make yourself meals. The bedrooms are comfy and nicely decorated. The bathroom is spectacular, although if you are traveling with little ones who need a bathtub, there is only a shower in the bathroom.
We had the chance to meet Candy, who was tending the gorgeous garden out back, and we saw her fantastic art studio. You can tell that a lot of love went into this place, and that our host really cares about their guests. It made an already wonderful weekend even better.
The location is great - about a 20 minute drive from Newport, in a quiet neighborhood. We couldn't ask for anything more! We will definitely request this place the next time we're down in Newport.
