If you have the opportunity, take a walk along this glorious area and enjoy watching the water as it splashes up agains the large rocks. If you take the opportunity to tour some of the mansions that are open to tourists (with tickets) you will get a sense of what life was like in the late 1800s for those with a great deal of money.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers!<br \/>\nKathy<\/p>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" class=\"owbutton\" src=\"http:\/\/www.onlywire.com\/button\" title=\"Newport\u00ae Mansions Wine & Food Festival\" url=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/?p=14624\"><\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Newport\u00ae Mansions Wine &#038; Food Festival will benefit the Preservation Society of Newport County.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[174],"tags":[1078,1161,184,3874,3875],"class_list":["post-14624","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-wine-newscommentary","tag-charity","tag-event","tag-festival","tag-newport-mansions","tag-the-breakers-mansion"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14624","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14624"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14624\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14630,"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14624\/revisions\/14630"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14624"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14624"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14624"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
