The Newcastle House
Have you noticed the stunning white house with its striking tin red roof nestled behind the Rhett House Inn’s main house? This is the Newcastle House, our premier accommodation in Beaufort, offering an unrivaled blend of privacy and luxury. Designed with elegance in mind, this fully appointed home features a gourmet kitchen with a cozy fireplace, a spacious dining room table seating eight, and a stylish bar. Guests enjoy access to all of the Inn’s amenities, all just steps from the main house, yet it feels like a private retreat—your perfect home away from home.
Notably, this historic gem has welcomed celebrated actors such as Robert Redford, Gabriel Byrne, and Tom Hanks, who stayed here while filming in the area. The Newcastle House is ideal for two couples, wedding guests, corporate retreats, anniversaries, honeymoons, or anyone seeking the finest accommodations in Downtown Beaufort.
