My husband and I always stay here when we are in Newport. Comfortable, historical, and even may have a ghost or 2.

Beautiful historic property. The location is close to everything in town. The inn has free parking too. The rooms were big and clean. The staff was very friendly and informative. The breakfast was great! The inn was actually the town jail before being renovated. I would highly recommend staying at the inn.

Nicely done B&B in the former jailhouse for Newport. Conveniently located just blocks from downtown and the waterfront. Plenty to see and do nearby. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good, and freshly baked cookies and fruit in the afternoon were quite welcome.
