I visited Newport for the first time this fall for a mother-daughter weekend and instantly fell in love with it's small town vibes and classic New England charm. The coastal city is home to the Gilded Mansions on Bellevue Ave (a must-see), beaches, wineries + breweries, the best food I've had in a while, and overall just a ton of things to do. We already want to go back and visit in a different season! It's one of those few places that is both warm and welcoming no matter when you visit.
