my mother lives in the village and we used this lovely property as a base to visit her in august. everything on the property and in the house is new and done to a very high level. the views are beautiful and the sunsets in particular long and stunning. we particularly appreciated the information binder with house specifics and local information provided therein. i spent my summers in newport and still found the book invaluable. all around it was a magical few days. its location is truly ideal and we can't wait to return next year.
