Lovely Newburyport Stay
My family and I stayed one night in this fabulous house. It was absolutely perfect. It was walking distance to the downtown, which was exactly what we were looking for. My husband and I enjoyed coffee together in the morning while listening to the record played and reading those adorable husband & wife “little books”. What a perfect addition. We will definitely be back!

Such a perfect house
This house was just perfect. It was well appointed, thoughtfullyy designed, historical, close to town and close to the water walkway and just overall really comfortable. The bedding felt luxurious and the linens were generous. If you’re not an early to rise kind of person, you might want to bring an mask for your eyes, because the skylights will get you up early.
