We will visit 2 of the most magnificent mansions in Newport: The Breakers and Marble House. The Breakers is the grandest of Newport’s “cottages” and is the sumptuous mansion of Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt. Enjoy magnificently decorated rooms, poinsettias, charming ornaments, trees, and wreaths. The Marble House is the magnificent mansion of William Vanderbilt and is inspired by Versailles. Exquisite marble Corinthian columns with holiday decorations fill the mansion with beauty. Upon arrival at each mansion, everyone receives an audio guide so you can walk through at your leisure listening to the story of the mansion. We will also enjoy a delightful Sunday Brunch at the Atlantic Resort, a beautiful new hotel on the water in Middletown RI. Sample menu: Salads, omelet and carving stations, selection of hot and cold entrees, breakfast and lunch items, pastries and beverage.
