Howland House is a four unit, classic historic Newport property. Built in 1750 it predates the Revolution and is one of Newport's oldest homes. While it holds all of the charm of old New England, through renovations and updates, it can comfortably accommodate larger parties allowing everyone privacy within their own units. Three of the four units are suites, while one is a townhouse style apartment. There is one full kitchen located in that unit. All of the other units have their own microwaves, coffee stations, mini fridges, plenty of closet space, and mini splits. There are three on site parking spots, first come first served and we also have an off-site lot 7 min walk away, if needed (by request)
