Harborlight Bed & Breakfast · Newport Reserve a Room

Newport, Rhode Island · A harbor-side house

Your key is on
the hall table.

Three doors lead off the corridor. Behind each one is a room, and everything after that is yours.

Harborlight is a bed and breakfast in Newport: historic rooms, windows that hold the water, a homemade breakfast, afternoon tea, bicycles at the door and sails at sunset.

The doors

Open one.

Two rooms and one package. Each is a different way of staying here — the water, the house, or the evening itself.

Rooms face the harbor or the old part of the house

Along the corridor

The rest of the house.

Between the doors, the house opens into small rooms of its own — each one keeps its own hour and its own light.

Breakfast, tea, and a bicycle at the door

01

Breakfast, in the morning room

It is homemade, and it is the reason the corridor smells the way it does at eight in the morning. You come down when you like; the table is already set.

Served every morning of your stay

02

Afternoon tea, when the light drops

The middle of the day belongs to walking Newport. The late afternoon belongs to the parlor, a pot of tea, and the hour when the brass fittings catch the sun.

Afternoon tea, served in the house

A pot, two cups, no hurry

Tea arrives in the afternoon and stays as long as you do. Sit by the window; the harbor does the rest of the talking.

Bicycles at the door

The house keeps bicycles for guests. Take one down the lane in the morning and Newport unrolls in front of you — the harbor, the streets, the long way round.

The evening

Then the light goes down to the water.

You can see the harbor from the upstairs windows. In the evening, you can be on it.

Out on the harbor as the day closes

Some evenings, the right thing to do is leave the house and let someone else hold the tiller. A sail goes out across the harbor and you watch Newport shrink to its lights.
