About this property

The Blue Peter House at Jamestown Village - Walk Downtown + 5 min drive to beach

The Blue Peter House is a stunning getaway for 6 guests located on the picturesque island of Conanicut (Jamestown, Rhode Island). In nautical terms, the Blue Peter indicates "the ship is ready to sail"... and sail away you do!!!


Our guests arrive into the completely private main house into a casually elegant living room with lots of room to spread out. The primary kitchen feature 2 ovens, gas-stove, dishwasher, fridge and all small appliances. There is also a small pantry and coffee station. The Blue Peter also has a professional chef in residence in the lower South Suite (He available for meal preparation and small events at an additional charge). Also on the main floor is a window dining nook seating up to 8 guests. Off the kitchen there is also the breakfast balcony for quiet conversations. The first floor living area is cooled by a window air conditioner.

The Blue Peter House includes a phenomenal master bedroom en suite featuring king size bed, a huge walk-in shower with a variety of showerheads, separate soaker/jetted tub and a beautiful sitting area. Also, the Turret Bedroom (king-size bed) and the charming Cottage Bedroom (queen-size bed) both with fantastic views of pastoral fields, huge gardens and distant views of Newport Bridge. Also, on the second floor is a extraordinary lounge for quiet evening chats . The second floor bedrooms and lounge have central air conditioning.

Exiting living room French Doors you are on the an expansive, deck and a huge backyard with with lots of room to entertain, a large grill and lawn seating. The deck features a six-person round dining table as well as additional seating. The lush yard offers a shady hammock for an afternoon snooze, fire-pit for evening chats, andagain a hard-gassed propane grill.

The Blue Peter House is located within ½ mile of the quaint village with restaurants, shopping, marinas, salons/spas and the Newport Ferry service. The Blue Peter House is in a quiet, very upscale neighborhood. It's a super easy stroll downtown and tucked away from the noise, hub-bub and inconveniences of local traffic and busyness.

Our House has plenty of off-street parking as well as storage area for bikes, kayaks, and other outdoor toys. The local Jamestown Outdoors (an easy, walk) is the go-to for renting bikes, kayaks, and more. Island Heron and Jamestown Fitness offers additional workout/relaxing experiences for your visit. Mackerel Cove Beach is a smidge over a mile walk. If you choose to ramble to the beach, there is a large wagon to transport beach items. I prefer popping over to Potter's Cove (2 miles) and enjoying the easy, free parking, wonderful wading and lovely Northern Island views.

If you are visiting in Late June or Early July look for the Jamestown Art Center's Annual Soiree !! Its a fantastic opportunity to dress up, enjoy great food and drink, and experience art in a totally different venue !

Beavertail Lighthouse, Fort Getty and Fort Wetherill (Internationally recognized for diving exploration.) are also within minutes biking or driving.


* The Property Owner and the Private Chef maintain separate living quarters at The Blue Peter House.

Above and beyond expectations

My friends and I were going to Newport to celebrate my 40th birthday, so we chose this beautiful home in Jamestown to stay. Little did I know what all our host, Amy, would provide! The day after booking, Amy called me to welcome us to her home, and to let us know all that is available with this booking. Alongside staying in her beautiful home, she also provided us access to a personal chef for an additional charge. So once we arrived, we were greeted with appetizers and a wonderful meal, prepared in front of us, and with my approval throughout the process. It was the absolute best way to spend my 40th. The property is also located within 15 minutes to touring the Newport mansions and many wonderful restaurants. I will be staying here again. Thank you Amy, and Chef!

Bachelorette weekend

The house was beautiful and extremely clean. It had all the amenities that you would want or need, and Amy provided any additional items that you may have forgotten - from toiletries to pantry staples. She was an extremely welcoming and friendly host, providing recommendations for us prior to our stay. We had a lovely and relaxing time in the Peter Blue House. Highly recommended!

A wonderful weekend!

We just spent an absolutely fabulous weekend at Amy's property for my mother's 80th birthday. The home is gorgeous, meticulous and impeccably outfitted with everything you could need for your stay. It is also perfectly situated near so many things to do in Jamestown and Newport. Amy was also a fantastic resource for information and ideas leading up to the weekend. Most notably, we were able to work with Amy and her in-house chef to create a wonderful birthday dinner for 10, which we served on the beautiful back deck. The food was exquisitely prepared, and they provided everything we could have possibly needed. They were just so incredibly helpful in making sure that everything was taken care of… I can't say enough about how lovely it was working with Amy and Chris! Thank you so much for everything!

Wonderful - Best rental home yet!

The Blue Peter House in Jamestown was fabulous. My three daughters and my two sisters joined me here for a girls only, long weekend, celebrating my 60th birthday. My husband and I spend about 3 months a year traveling, always renting homes for our stays. Amy’s house was by far the best ever. She has thought of everything you could need. The location was perfect for getting away from the crowds while also being easy walking distance to shops, restaurants and the ferry to Newport. Amy was not only responsive but also took the time to customize our experience. You won’t regret staying at the Blue Peter House.

About the host

Hosted by Amy Brayton

Host profile image
I owned + ran one of the largest restaurants in Newport County for many years and hospitality is in my soul! I strive for only your 5-star reviews (you can visit my other VRBO The Minnows on Egret Cove, which has fantastic reviews). I am the constant concierge and I am happy to guide you to local events + activities.

I am creeping into my 60's, so I only host mature guests, since it's what I know. My homes are designed and decorated with high-end features, beautiful furniture/antiques, original art and all the amenities.

Why they chose this property

Westwind is an estate area with all the homes located on substantially sized lots, many with large gardens, fields and water views. Our yard backs up to our favorite neighbor who is regularly passing us fresh organic produce and eggs. Don't be surprised if the chickens find their way into the yard. There is no rooster.

Yet, what truly makes our location unique is it is perfectly located for an easy ramble into the village ! We are in easy walking distance (less than 1/2 mile) to restaurants + bars, library, Jamestown Art Center (If you visit in late June you ABSOLUTELY want tix to the Annual Soiree!), Ferry Service (Easy hop on to downtown Newport, Folk + Jazz Festivals and wonderful way to get on the water) shopping, water activities, etc.

We get all the access without the inconvenience of traffic, parking and noise!
