Stay Overnight At A Piece Of Living History From 1803 At The Samuel Durfee House In Rhode Island

Once upon a time (in 1803), the Samuel Durfee House was constructed in Newport at the direction of an English banker. It remained a private residence until 1998, when it was renovated and turned into the beautiful bed and breakfast it is today. Luckily, plenty of historic details were left untouched, and that's why walking through this going feels like going back in time.

The Samuel Durfee House was once the residence of the Durfee family, and it was a magnificent structure even in the early 1800s.

In 1998, the Pinho family purchased the property and turned it into the delightful place it is today.

The house was built during the federal period, and you'll still notice some of the unique molding, paneled walls, and wide first-floor floorboards remain.

While the house has been fully renovated to include modern amenities, it still has a historic charm.

When you book a stay at this gorgeous home, the goal is always to give you a relaxing, enjoyable experience.

You'll start each day with a hearty breakfast in the elegant dining room. Then, you're free to roam about the property.

Of course, you may have a tough time leaving your cozy room, which is fine.

The five guest rooms and suites all have private baths and are well-stocked with amenities like plush robes and Turkish towels.

And while the rooms all embody an old-fashioned charm, you'll still have modern conveniences like WiFi and televisions.

Some of the rooms even have private balconies and whirlpool tubs.

And while getting out of your cozy bed won't be easy, when you see your breakfast, you'll be glad you did.

Breakfast is served daily from 8:45-10:00 in the formal dining room, or on the patio in the summer if you wish. And if you're an early riser, you can enjoy coffee, tea, yogurt and granola until it's ready.

The Samuel Durfee House is the perfect location for a romantic getaway or anyone looking to rest and recharge.

And if you happen to love local history, you'll appreciate its charms.

Book your stay at the Samuel Durfee House and surprise someone special with a relaxing retreat.
