About this property

Adorable 2 bdrm Cottage. Walk to Beach. Surrounded by gardens.

Location, Location, Location! If you're looking for some relaxing time near the beach, this is it!

This is a bright, clean, comfortable cottage surrounded by unique and creative gardens. Such an easy walk to the beach you can do it several times a day.

First floor bedroom has a queen bed and second bedroom is a spacious loft with a queen bed and double futon. The loft is accessed by a spiral staircase. Please note that this spiral staircase may be difficult for the very young, elderly or anyone with mobility issues. Kitchen is fully equipped for eating in, but please note there is not a dishwasher.

There is a private deck surrounded by flowering shrubs and perennial beds and a large, shared yard - great for kids!! The cottage is located on a quiet street only a short walk to Newport's Easton's Beach (a.k.a First Beach). First Beach has public facilities, a carousel and playground. Restaurants, coffee shop, ice-cream are within walking distance and downtown Newport is only 1 1/2 miles away. It is a great area for walking, running, biking, surfing and kayaking.

It is one of four cottages known as Beach Garden Cottages. (See other cottages at vrbo.com ID #s 104164 (1 bedroom), # 104163 (2 bedroom) or #113650 (3 bedroom). Parking for two cars. Washer/dryer shared with 3 other cottages. Outdoor "after-beach" shower shared with other cottages. Window air conditioning.

The location is best for those looking for a quiet vacation, close to but away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Newport. No parties or late night noise. HOUSE RULE: No voices or music loud enough to be hard outside after 10 PM.

Nice cottage, great area

We enjoyed our visit, the location was great and nice and quiet. The portable / window AC units worked well in the sleeping areas, could use an additional unit for the living/dining areas.

Beautiful Cottage and wonderful location

The cottage was beautiful and had a nice private patio while still have an outdoor shower for after the beach (with hot and cold water!). We were easily able to walk to first beach and be close to everything in Newport and Middletown and still have a quiet, lovely place to relax.

Beautiful Cottage Near the Beach

Our family of four had the best time staying here and making new memories. The home was stocked with everything we needed and was walking distance to restaurants, stores, the beach and excursions. The owners were very responsive and helpful and we felt very relaxed the entire trip. (note: we did bring our own baby gate to block off the spiral staircase - I would recommend this if you plan to bring infants/todders).

Beachful Bliss

Perfect place for a cousins'' getaway. The cottage is charming, clean and in a great location - it was perfect. I had some reservations about 5 women sharing 1 bathroom, but it was never an issue (we loved the shower's great water pressure). We didn't cook because we were too busy walking, walking and more walking (the mansions, the Cliff Walk & the wharf). So much to do and so little time. The owners were professional and kind - easy to work with. We are already talking about planning on going back to this charming garden cottage.

Newport cottage

My family and I had a wonderful stay at the cottage. My only suggestion is to check as the bathroom ceiling is starting to get some spots of mold like specs— one of my children has some respiratory sensitivities but this could pose as a bigger problem to anyone with sensitive breathing. Or asthma. Also there were small ants that got in to some of our snacks but I’m not familiar with the area so not sure if this is common in the north.

Great little spot mere steps outside Newport

Wife and I needed a two week getaway, and this cottage near Newport was the perfect thing for us. The location was spot on with plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance, as was Easton Beach. The drive to Newport was about a mile. We toured the mansions, shopped in Newport, took a ferry to Block Island, a day trip to Providencetown on Cape Cod, and more. At night we sat outside on the patio and had cheese and wine and music. Laundry facilities on site was a plus. Owners were great.

The perfect stay!

Trisha and Paul's cottage was totally ideal for our weekend in Newport--lovely, quiet and comfortable inside and out, with amazing access to the beach and convenient parking. It was truly the perfect oasis as we came and went to Newport Folk and other activities. We'd love to come back for a longer visit!

In for wedding, but enjoyed the town

It was a quick turn around for a wedding at the Atlantic Resort (1/2 mile away), but we enjoyed the quaint seaside restaurants, the cliff walk and walking around the old seaside neighborhoods. It is also adjacent to Newport and everything it offered. The house is cute, 2 bedrooms, but one up spiral staircase that looks down below, enough room for 4 of us, the only tough time was pre-wedding with the bathroom. All and all, it was a nice stay.

A wonderful place

I had the pleasure of vacationing at this spot last month with my wife, two kids and father in-law. It is set back and is surrounded by flower gardens and very nice landscaping. It is close to Eastons Beach and local attractions. Paul and Trisha a very nice people. They checked in on our first day to assure we had everythng we needed. We had a little problem with the internet connection. When we notified them and they got right on it and it was working within a couple of hours. My only regret is that we did not book two weeks! We plan to come back next year!

Great for family vacation

My family and I spent a week in mid July and had a great time! The spiral stairs were not much of an incovenience, even with our two young girls. We did find the step from the entry area to the living area a bit of a hassle as we had a newly crawling 10 month old who had to learn to negotiate that step as she was crawling around. It was within easy walking distance to the beach and had some restaurants and convenience stores within a short walk as well. The gardens were gorgeous and you felt quite secluded having coffee on the patio. It is someplace we would definitely visit again, though this time we would be sure to request the air conditioning!!

Most relaxing

We stayed the weekend of June 11-13. It is a very convenient location to Newport (Ocean Walk is walking distance). The landscaping is awesome, you feel very secluded. The cottage itself was warm and inviting. The owners were most accommodating. All in all I would whole heartedly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Paul & Trish Onofrio

Host profile image
We bought this property of 4 cottages and a two family house in 1997. It was very rundown. We lived on the property and did most of the renovations and landscaping ourselves with lots of help from friends and family. We now live in the next town but continue to be very 'hands-on'. We have been doing vacation rentals for over 20 years and will do all we can to make sure you enjoy your time here. We are easily reached to solve any problems or answer questions for our guests.

Why they chose this property

Trisha grew up in the Newport area and Paul grew up near the coast in Madison, Connecticut. Shortly after getting married, we were thrilled to find a 'fixer-upper' so close to the ocean. We take great pride in having created a unique vacation spot for so many of our returning renters and look forward to meeting new renters every year.

What makes this property unique

Paul's gardens are what all our renters comment on and make our place special. When you walk through the gate, behind the hedge, the landscaping will charm you. Seashell paths, arbors, roses, hydrangeas, daisies, blueberry bushes and strawberries, covered decks, butterflies, birds and more create a serene and unforgettable place to relax and unwind.
