The Captain Carl is the ideal base to explore Newport from, beautifully set on the water in the harbour - a totally charming houseboat. It has everything you could need for a stay and was surprisingly spacious for our group of four. Kathy was the perfect host, so welcoming and attentive eager to make sure we enjoyed the many great attractions which Newport has to offer. Our three day visit was completely relaxing and left us reenergised. I’d love to visit and stay here again 10/10
