Relaxing Bachelorette
The property was well kept and had a ton of activities and beach amenities to choose from! The distance to the beach and downtown Newport was very convenient. The girls loved staying here and it was a perfect little get-away for the bride-to-be!

About the host

Hosted by Elizabeth Lawton

Host profile image
I grew up in Newport and Middletown and have deep roots on Aquidneck Island, Rhode Island. I am a public health epidemiologist currently living in Northern California and I enjoy the experience of both coasts.

Why they chose this property

The name Hammett-Richardson is a tribute to my grandmother and grandfather, respectively, who lived and cared for the house for decades. As a child, I spent many happy times here learning how to make doughboys and RI style clam chowder, and how to throw a traditional New England clambake.

I love this place and I hope you will too.

What makes this property unique

A beautiful Victorian/Arts and Crafts style house on one acre of land and situated close to Newport harbor, downtown Newport, Salve Regina University, the Naval War College and Navy Base. Within biking distance to excellent beaches, and has views of the Middletown Historic Society windmill, the beautiful gothic St. George's School chapel, and weekly polo practice on the multi acre field across the street.
