Lovely stay, short and sweet. Loved the outdoor shower, especially with the heat. The beach is close-by, but I didn't have time to walk down to it. I met Steven and his wife very briefly but they were pleasant and friendly. The cottage is comfortable, though there is no running water in the water closet, so you have to cross over the drive-way to use the guest bathroom. Beautiful side porch that looks over the pretty landscape full of hydrangeas. Hope to spend more time in Newport next time!
