Hawthorne House of Newport

We had a brilliant stay here this weekend with our dog. Very spacious accommodation, perfectly located between the coast and the centre of town which meant we were in walking distance for both. Terri was fantastic leading up to the stay sharing lots of information by email in advance, and Mike was great orientating us with the accommodation at the beginning. Both genuinely wanted us to have the best stay - and their tips really did help! The breakfast and snack provisions were fantastic - banana bread, English muffins, fruit, cookies, cereals and milk, drinks galore - they definitely didn’t want us to go hungry! Dog friendly highlights for us (early November so off season): - Baileys beach (at the beginning of cliff walk) - Cliff walk around to The Breakers - Thames St International Yac

Wonderful accommodations for our toddler, my husband, and me. Our hosts, Terri and Mike had toys, treats, and a kiddie pool ready to go for our toddler (which was a pleasant surprise and much appreciated!). Terri and Mike were very responsive to our inquiries and attentive to our needs. The accommodations are a short distance from a variety of Newport attractions and a great location for a tumbling toddler who had a large backyard to romp around in, as well as a couple decent playgrounds (and the beach!) within walking distance. Many thanks for a great stay! We hope to be back during our next visit to Newport.

This is the most amazing place to stay for our visit to my home town Newport. I am a "5th Warder" as are Terri & Mike, who lived across the street from me when we were kids. Their hospitality, warmth and kindness went beyond anything I expected. Our accommodations were impeccable, beautifully decorated and supplied with everything needed for a wonderful stay in Newport. The location was perfect for going to "the Goose" [Gooseberry Beach] and for seeing all the sights that Newport has to offer. This will always be my first choice when going "back home".

My fiancé, dog, and I stayed at Hawthorne House for a quick two-night getaway from NYC. We wanted a quiet place where we could relax but was also close to the Newport attractions. Hawthorne House was just that. It was such a lovely place to stay and Terri and Mike were so great, extremely accommodating, so friendly. They allowed us to bring our big (sometimes well-behaved) dog and they have a very large backyard with a park across the street. They had stocked the kitchen with a variety of cereal, milk, OJ, water bottles, English muffins, cookies, etc. The home is about a mile from downtown so with good weather, you could easily walk. We did the Cliff Walk, which Mike recommended and it was not far from the house at all. We had such a great stay, we’ll be back again for sure! -Darcy & Chri

Spent Easter weekend in Newport at the Hawthorne House with Terri and Mike and can't say enough about the experience! This was our second visit, the first 6 years ago, and it again exceeded our expectations. The apartment is separate from the house for privacy but there is still a nice deck and a spacious yard to enjoy. The apartment is stocked with everything you could ever need and more! Terri and Mike are very friendly, even inviting us into their home and allowing our 15 year old dog to visit them on Easter, while we left for brunch! Very kind hosts, very clean and comfortable accommodations and an amazing location. thank you for a great Easter!
