Beautiful Newport Home - The Cottage At Restmere, South

Nestled in a picturesque cul-de-sac on the Newport/ Middletown line, and comfortably accommodating 4 adult guests and 2 children, you’ll find the Cottage at Restmere, South. Convenient to everything that Newport has to offer, as well as Middletown’s stunning beaches, this location can’t be beat. Features include all brand new top-of-the-line furniture and mattresses, eat in kitchen with granite, plenty of outdoor space, off street parking for 2 cars, and central A/C. The deck creates the perfect space to enjoy your morning coffee, or a cold beverage in the evening after a stroll on Cliff Walk. Beautifully landscaped and central to beaches and shopping. High quality furnishings with a deck and a lovely private backyard.

The space: This condo is designed to make you feel at home. Upon entering the South unit, you will be welcomed by a spacious, comfortable living room and tasteful beachy decor. A sofa bed along the East wall allows for a very comfortable movie spot, and then provides 2 separate twin sized beds. The 55” television above the decorative fireplace has full live TV via the YouTube TV app, and allows you to sign into any of your preferred streaming services. The upgraded eat-in kitchen provides seating for 4 and is fully equipped with a Keurig, coffee pods, and all basic cooking needs. Down the hall you’ll find a “Jack and Jill” bathroom that connects to the master bedroom. The bedrooms are alike in size and boast queen beds with Serta mattresses. The back door to the cottage is off of the kitchen and leads to the deck that is complete with brand new, comfortable furniture and is shared with the North cottage next door. Although both of the property's "cottages" are adjoining, they are separated by a foyer, basement stairwell, and a rear hallway to allow for your privacy and quiet enjoyment. *all furnishings are brand new as of July 2021*

Location: The cottages at Restmere are located on a cul-de-sac on the Newport/Middletown line that can only be described as serene. This location is perfect for those travelers that are looking to enjoy all that Newport has to offer but appreciate a safe and quiet place to come home to. It is located just minutes from the Newport bridge, the beaches, vineyards, downtown Newport, and the trendy and bustling restaurant scene on Broadway. Also close by are grocery stores (Shaws, Stop & Shop, BJ’s), liquor store, deli, gas station, coffee shops, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, and laundromat.

Other things to note: I provide linens, towels, hotel size shampoo and body wash, K cups and tea for the Keurig, basic cooking supplies, hair dryer, iron and ironing board, etc. I ask that you bring your own beach towels.

*If availability allows, large groups can book the “North” cottage as well to sleep 12 total with parking for 4 cars.

Wedding visit

It was clean and comfortable. Attractive neighborhood. Nice that coffee was available. Other nice amenities like W/D and BBQ which we didn’t get to use due to short stay. Easy, efficient communication and check in.

Great spot!

Quiet neighborhood, close enough to Newport (where we spent everyday) but far enough out of the busyness. The place had everything we needed with plenty of space for the 4 of us.

Pristine cottage near everything

The cottage was meticulously clean and decorated tastefully. The bedding and living room were comfortable and the sunlight in the living room window brightened the entire place. The kitchen was modern and very user-freindly. So close to downtown Newport and the beach. Can’t wait to come back!

Bachelor party stop over

Location of property was exquisite for a night on the town style bachelor party. 300 yard walk gets you to the top of broadway. Meandered the night away. Relaxing and quiet place to rest our heads for the night.

Thanksgiving experience

Enjoyed warming up the food with the provided appliances and broke dinner with family and freinds . Very small group but otherwise cleaned up and watched TV shows and had small chitchat to pass time. Over all great home and location.

Cottage at Restmere

My friend and I stayed at the property for a bachelorette get away. We LOVED this property. The house looked exactly as the photos shown. Spotlessly cleaned! Gale was also incredibly easy to communicate with and accessing the property was no issue. The rental is very close to all of the Newport activities (short uber ride away) and also very close to a Shaws, liquor store, Walgreens, etc. Very convenient for a weekend getaway. The interior and back deck were really lovely. The beds were also incredibly comfortable. even though there are only 2 bedrooms there is plenty of sleeping space. The kitchen is well stocked with bowls/plates/cutlery etc. Highly recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely property. The house was meticulously clean and full of thoughtful touches to make our stay more enjoyable. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked with anything we might have needed. The neighborhood is quiet and serene but also centrally located just minutes from the beaches and other attractions. Gale was incredibly responsive to our questions and very kind and thoughtful. We would love to stay there again.

Almost 5 stars

Property was clean, nicely decorated, and comfortable. Almost 5 stars. The owner had scheduled boiler maintenance during our stay which would have left us without hot water for several hours. Once I protested, she rescheduled that for after our stay. There appeared to be lots of vacancy time when she could have scheduled that. Perplexed why she didn’t do that. There was a substantial leak under the kitchen sink that the owner didn’t know about. I put a pot underneath and made the owner aware. A walkthrough of the property by the manager periodically would find issues that need to be fixed. The house has been split into 2 units left and right side. There was one early morning that I heard the other tenants speaking loudly, having breakfast as they packed up to leave. Not an issue really just be aware that you are sharing the home with another unit. Also a few minor amenities could help: a small/medium fry pan, some lights were out (over stove). Overall a great stay with a few minor issues

Very nice property. However it was a split property with the other half being someone else in; it sounded like a lot of water running through the pipes all night night running through the pipes all night

Great place to stay

The cottage was very clean and beautifully decorated. Very comfortable place to relax after a long day of exploring Newport. Very close to restaurants and shopping but walking isn't really an option because the neighborhood leads to a busy road with no sidewalks. Very inexpensive uber ride just about anywhere though. We enjoyed our stay very much.
