John, the owner and the passionate custodian of the Newport House brings his wisdom and expertise to life in his lifetime achievement, recreating Colonial Newport in Colonial Virginia. You get to hear his story over an excellent breakfast and then you walk into Colonial Williamsburg with a very fresh perspective on American History, already immersed in this era. Nothing parallels this experience. We wished we could stay here for longer.

Absolutely unique. This 18th century colonial house stood in Newport, RI before being dismantled by the current hosts and moved to Williamsburg. Wonderful 18th century furnishings and detail. But here is the one of travel experience part. The second floor, except for two guest rooms, is a large 18th century ballroom. The hosts host 18th century English and Scottish dancing on Tuesday and Thursday nights. About a dozen people were dancing the night we were there. At 79 we watched, but what a delightful, unexpected travel experience. Hosts were friendly, house is less than ten minute walk into the heart of colonial Williamsburg. Never to be forgotten.

We loved the Newport House. John and Kathy were excellent hosts. They were warm and welcoming and had tons of information regarding the area and its history. The property is a quick walk to the historic district. The rooms were extremely comfortable and we had plenty of space. The bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was delightful! Fresh fruit and freshly prepared entree were delicious! John provided entertaining conversation filled with amusing stories from area history. Bonus #1 was little bunny Mae, hopping around the dining room. So cute! Bonus #2 was English country dancing on Tuesday night. We had so much fun learning the dances of the colonial era. Everyone was so understanding and helpful to us beginners. We are ready for a Jane Austen ball! We cannot recommend the Newport House enough!!

Everything thing was delightful. Wish we could have planned to stay longer!

The Newport House Bed and Breakfast is a lovely, quaint place with colonial architecture and furniture to bring you back in time! They also offer colonial dancing on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The hosts were wonderful, educated people who would sit with you at breakfast and tell you about times past! We had a relaxing time and we can’t wait to go back! Thank you John, Cathy and May!!

Honestly, we couldn’t have been happier with our accommodations!

The breakfast was very nice, and good but we there was no choice. I do not remember being asked of we had any dietary restrictions,I'm sure they would cater for restrictions if necessary. The host was very friendly and helpful, with extensive local knowledge. It was a short, easy walk to the historic centre.

The breakfast was awesome with some fresh fruits to start with and pancakes with sausages or waffles with bacon. The location is 10 minutes walk to the Colonial Williamsburg. There was a whole deer family on the way to downtown.

The bathroom floor is a bit cold. It would be great to have some extra mats in the bathroom. No bathtub in the bathroom, only shower.

The towels were huge and very soft. The beds were wonderful. Pretty beds and comforters. Lovely wool blankets on the beds that were just the perfect weight and warmth. So much nicer than synthetic blankets. The house bunny, May, was adorable. The host and hostess were very personable and kind. Very knowledgeable about local history. House is very clean and well maintained. We enjoyed our stay and room very much.

We really enjoyed the stories we were told during breakfast.

We had a great time while in Williamsburg. We could even walk to downtown from this location. Can't say anything bad about the Newport house.

We had a lovely 4 night stay at the Newport House B&B between Christmas and New Years 2021. The hosts, John and Cathy, were warm and friendly and provided us with delicious breakfasts each morning. We particularly enjoyed John's history lessons, and Cathy's beautiful Christmas decorations. We walked to all the Historic Williamsburg sites and there were many excellent restaurants also within walking distance. We arrived by train and when we were ready to head home, John graciously took us to the Amtrak Station in town. You should definitely consider the Newport House B&B for your next visit to Williamsburg.

The location was excellent, it was easily walkable to the Duke of Gloucester street and attractions. It was clean, attractive, and very quiet. Our hosts were delightful and had many wonderful stories to share. Highly recommend!
