Newport Highlights

“THE SUNSHINE TOWN” is what Newport is called. Small and friendly, nestled in the hills of southwestern NH, with striking mountain views and adventure in all directions, Newport is a town you will want to explore. With picturesque forests, crystal clear rivers and ponds (readily stocked with fish), outdoor sports, cultural events, many miles of biking/hiking trails and a fantastic golf course, the list is never ending. With wonderful community spirit, Concerts on the Common, Movies in the Park, and even an Apple Pie Craft Fair come to life in Newport. The Newport Opera House holds many cultural events. Two covered bridges adorn Newport. Corbin Covered Bridge (1845) and Pier Covered Bridge (1871), both with a long history of their existence, still stand proudly. Great dining and warm/cozy lodging are waiting to take care of your needs. Sullivan County Superior Court, which once served as a school/grange hall and then became a courthouse, is now a restaurant. In 2004, it became the home of The Old Court House, a destination for creative dishes, all served from locally-sourced ingredients. Whatever you are looking to do or see, Newport will have it. Plan a few days. You will definitely need extra time here.
