Belcourt of Newport

Take a peek behind the scenes during a Belcourt of Newport Restoration Tour. Throughout the tour, you’ll see some of the incredible work that has been done by hundreds of talented crafts people, many of whom are based right here in little Rhode Island! You’ll see the beautiful architecture of one of Newport’s most eccentric houses, a 44,000 foot bachelor pad designed more for the horses than for the people. You’ll also hear about the lives of its original owners, Oliver Hazard Perry Belmont and his second wife, Alva Erksine Smith Vanderbilt Belmont. Tours available Wednesday-Sunday.
