About this house rental

Originally finished in 1836, Elmhyrst is a historic home literally straddling the border of Newport and Middletown. In fact, part of the property is actually in Newport.

The four bedroom, three bathroom property was renovated between 2017 and 2021 with an eye towards preserving and restoring the original architectural details including furniture and art. The property is 4,000 SF.

Town and Country (1949) wrote: “Elmhyrst is a flawless example of the chaste Greek revival, rare in Newport, and considered one of the best houses of this style in the state.”

The home has been in the same family for over 100 years and they are thrilled to share it with the world!

Fabulous restoration of an impressive home yet a true feeling of warmth and comfort. My family loved staying here and enjoying the charm and elegance of years gone by with modern and high-end conveniences. Even the bedding was top notch! We were staying in Middletown for a family wedding and Kimberly could not have been more accommodating. Highly recommend this property for a large family like mine or a girls weekend.

We had a wonderful summer weekend at this beautiful property! The history of the house and intricate details are fascinating and they did a great job refinishing this gem recently. Check-in and check-out was a breeze. We had to contact Kim for a small issue and she responded immediately. I would definitely book this property again in the future!

We had the best girls weekend at Elmhyrst. The check-in property was seamless and the house was the best of both worlds, clean and up to date but also beautifully restored to its orginal character. We had so much fun pretending like we had gone back in time (while still feeling comfortable with central air during a heat wave!). Kimberly was very responsive and attentive and the experience was fantastic. I’ve already recommended it to several friends!

I can’t thank Kimberly enough for being one of the best hosts I’ve ever had on vrbo. The house and property was amazing. The house was super clean and just as described. Kimberly was more then accommodating and very helpful. The beds were very comfortable which I was very happy with as most other rentals lack in that area. Would highly recommend this to anyone.
