Off-season at the Outlook
My stay at the Outlook was perfect. My room was outstanding and the shower was worth the money itself. The manager, Serena, was warm, welcoming and helpful. The provided breakfast was delicious. I’ll be back for sure

Brilliant small bed and breakfast for a stay right in the centre of Newport. Clean quiet and run by friendly people, and ideally located to explore town and the wharfs on foot. Amazing breakfasts too! Wonderful fresh home cooking every morning. Car park is a five minute walk away on foot but that is the only thing to note.

Perfect location in Newport
Perfect location walkable to wharf, restaurants, and shopping. Lovely room and large enough for a couple. The inn keeper was delightful- she and her team prepared fabulous breakfast and served on a beautiful third floor terrace overlooking the water!

Did a great job renovating an older property. No on site parking but the super convenient location to everything is worth the tradeoff.

Great location! Parking is a bit far away and room is very strongly scented. It’s a bit irritating smell.

Serena, Ashley and the rest of the staff really went out of their way to make our stay fantastic. The Outlook is beautifully decorated and comfortable, and the location is ideal for walking around Newport’s wharf section. The daily breakfast was also delicious and the third floor deck provided sweeping views of the harbor. I highly recommend the Outlook Inn for anyone desiring a beautiful and relaxing visit to Newport.
