General Information

Bird Song Cottage is a beautifully restored 1920's cottage located in one of Newport's nicest residential neighborhoods. Located mid-way between Newport Beach, the Cliff Walk and the downtown harbor, it's central location puts you within an easy walk to all Newport attractions. Appointed with beautiful period furnishings and surrounded by an award-winning garden, my wish is to provide you with a comfortable and relaxing " home away from home". Offering two suites, both with queen beds, private baths, AC and cable TV, Bird Song Cottage is the perfect get-away to make your visit to Newport a special and memorable time.
