Sweetberry Farm, Rehearsal Dinners, Wedding and Bridal Venue, Bed and Breakfast, Hotel, Lodging, Newport / Middletown Rhode Island, Villa 120

Sweetberry Farm is a great location for your country-style wedding, rehearsal supper or party. Recently refurbished to a very high standard, I've had the opportunity of attending a couple of events: one for Newport Life magazine and the other for Sandpipers.

Sweetberry Farm is located approximately 10 minutes from Villa 120 and is easily accessible on a quiet road, avoiding all the downtown Newport traffic. Brides staying at Villa 120 or brides with a larger wedding would find this a perfect location.

On the other hand, a conference taking place at Villa 120 could enjoy many items off of Sweetberry Farm's lunch menu. Aside from lunch, they have excellent, locally baked goods.

No matter the reason that you would be staying at Villa 120, a trip to Sweetberry Farms is a must-visit place in Newport, providing great food and a relaxing atmosphere.

Work can be fun too! You always have to laugh.
