My cousin reserved Captain Newton's Bed & Breakfast for her wedding in October of 2018th. I am…read morefinally getting around to writing this review as I've not been Yelping for a bit.....LOL!
Anyway, so happy my cousin, Angel, chose Captain Newton's! Me and my husband were fortunate to stay there with her. We stayed in one of the two bedrooms in the main home. Angel had the other bedroom. My aunt & uncle stayed in a suite in the back/side of the home (it has it's own private entrance, so they could come & go without disturbing anyone).
Things I loved about the B & B.....
The owner's were welcoming, affable, and super accommodating. Having never stayed at a B & B before, I didn't know what to expect, and was somewhat worried that it would be strange staying at someone's home. However, it was not strange at all! The owner's do live on the premises. Their residence is attached to the main home (the entrance to their home is behind the little kitchen nook, and leads into their beautiful kitchen). They were exceptional hosts. Giving you your privacy, yet at the same time, making sure you had everything you need at all times. I couldn't be more impressed.
I LOVED the decor! There was great attention to detail in making it feel like home away from home. It was comfortable and beachy cute. While the furnishings were newer, they kept the style traditional to match the age of the home. I loved all the beautiful touches.....Flowers, cute pillows, little wooden signs with positive sayings. And I especially loved the two porch swings. One swing on the top balcony, and the other on the lower balcony. We spent much time up their hanging out, drinking wine, and just breathing in the calm and fresh air.
A delicious breakfast was provided for us daily. For example: Quiche, sausage, granola, fruit dish, fresh juice, milk, etc. Such a nice treat!
The location is ideal! We were walking distance from all the cute shops, the convenience (wine/liquour store), the water, and great restaurants. It was centrally located.
Also, there is a pool with a separate jacuzzi....YAY! As I said earlier, our visit was in October, but we still wanted to use their beautiful pool, so they heated it the pool for us to perfection. What a great way for us to spend the day after the wedding!
Once more thing I loved was that they had bikes for us to ride around town. The weather was great for a bike ride, and we toured the cute little town checking out the harbor, the old cemetery, the old jail, etc. It is such a beautiful little town, and ideal location to have a wedding.
If you are visiting Southport NC, and looking for a place to hang your hat, look no further. Captain Newton's is it!
