We have friends coming from out of state and arriving tomorrow. They will be staying at Marriott Courtyard in Warwick so we are planning to do a day trip to Newport (possibly tomorrow, weather dependent).
My question is which mansions would be advisable to visit? We would like to walk part of the Cliff Walk also if it is a nice day but who knows in New England.....
Any other suggestions for things to do, where to eat (not expensive places). We will probably do a late afternoon lunch rather than dinner.
We will be driving in from Jamestown/Newport bridge. Are there any parking lots within easy walking distance of the mansions or Cliff Walk?
Thanks everyone.

Mansions in Newport
No there are no pay or free lots near the mansions. If you go in a mansion you park in their lot. This way you may, emphasis on may, be able to do a bit of the walk too as they abut. However, some of the side streets around the mansions have some parking, try Narragansett. Shouldn%26#39;t be too bad at all on a not so sunny Thursday. Should still be nice. Breakers is the most pop, others...Marble House, Rose Cliff, and more.

Hillside68,
Thanks so much, you are awesome! We live around here so have been to Newport b4 but trying to plan the date with a little bit of itinerary. Nothing like waiting til the last minute, eh? LOL
Now I just have to figure out what to do in Boston, not such an easy task compared to Newport.
