We stayed 4 nights. Owner Charles is very helpful and informative. One of the best experiences at Bed and Breakfast whom owner cared for their guests.

Wonderful place to stay with quick walking access to most of Newport. It's a quite and safe neighborhood. The porch was a wonderful place to spend our evenings relaxing. Charles was an excellent host, one of my all-time favorites. He offers up great conversation, excellent recommendations, and some good food as well. The only small issue we had was with very low water pressure, so if you're a shower junky, just be aware. That might be a Newport thing though. Would recommend staying here for the amazing value it provides.

Charles and Tanya are very attentive hosts. We truly enjoyed talking with Charles and also learning of his wife Romana’s carrot classic. Great bed and breakfast for visiting Newport, wonderful atmosphere! Extra bonus, Charles makes a scrumptious breakfast!

I booked this property for my parents so they would have comfortable accommodations while attending a weekend event in Tiverton. I was disappointed to hear the hosts were most inflexible with breakfast. My parents were attending an all day event on Saturday and needed to leave a bit early, they were told that breakfast would only be served at 9am "because there are other guests" - which apparently are more important than my parents? It's a Bed and Breakfast, the hosts live there, if they have to whip up a light breakfast in addition to their planned main meal then that's what should have been done. Instead my parents were left bananas and store bought muffins, if I'd wanted them to have a poor continental breakfast I'd have booked them at a crappy hotel. Nowhere in the accommodation description or on the website does it say anything about a strict breakfast schedule. My parents did dine with them on Sunday morning and were unfortunately still unimpressed with the meal. They said it was like dessert for breakfast with a layered trifle type offering with crumbled muffins and loads of sugar. My mother opted for eggs as she could not eat the trifle (cow dairy allergy, lots of whipped cream) and she enjoyed her eggs. My father also had eggs but he said they were not very good. Overall I would not book this accommodation again for myself or others as the cost for the 'bed' is far too expensive to receive mediocre, at best, 'breakfast'.

The host's hospitality and the very special breakfasts we had. Our bedroom was spacious with a very comfortable and cleaned king size bed. The property is very close to the New Port Mansions, New Port beaches and the magnificent Ocean Drive, restaurants and galleries. The surroundings of this property are safe and enjoyable. It was a truly a very relaxing experience.

Lovely owner - very compassionate and caring. And the breakfast he prepared was excellent. Home is charming - filled with antique pictures and many other articles - some parts of collections. Comfortable if one likes that sort of thing. Room was also comfortable - new bathroom was nice. Sheets on bed felt old but probably just softer than I tend to prefer. The owner definitely makes this place - along with it's convenient location relative to First Beach (about a 20 minute walk). I had a lovely time. Thank you!!

I had a fantastic two night stay at Armistead Cottage. Charles the owner is warm and funny and helpful and an amazing cook. Be sure to have breakfast in the dining room! The bed and breakfast is centrally located, a short walk to the beach and Cliff Walk. Perfect for anyone who doesn’t want to be in the center of the tourist area, but still close to everything. I recommend 100%!

Our stay at the Armistead Cottage B&B surpassed our expectations. From the minute we walked through the door our host made us feel right at home. We were charmed be the decor of each room and the home was spotless.The house is located comfortably within walking distance to the downtown, beach and cliffs. Our private room was very comfortable with modern bathroom. The breakfast each morning was fantastic. Our host was very knowledgeable of the town and shared many stories of his interesting life. I would stay here again without thought.

The best part of our stay had to be Romana, the owner. She was communicative and personable and had great advice especially with dining suggestions. This was our first trip to Newport and we couldn’t have had a better time. The breakfasts were delicious and our room and bathroom were pristine. Our only issues were the extremely spotty WiFi, but there was also a coastal storm which may have had an effect. The other minor issue was the weak water pressure in our shower.

What a pleasurable stay. This BnB located in beautiful Newport was a simple 20 minute walk to downtown. Romana, the owner, was so welcoming and knowledgeable. She made us feel comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. The accommodations were beautiful. So easy to get around town. Highly recommend staying here. Midweek was definitely less crowded and made things even better.
