Dispatch: A Long Layover In Newport For The Audrain Concours d'Elegance

By Tim Jeffreys

Tim Jeffreys of Hodinkee presents the first installment of The Long Layover, a guide to spending 24 to 72 hours in a city built around a watch or watch-adjacent event. The itinerary covers the Chanler as a home base, a morning run on the Cliff Walk, breakfast at Picnic Cafe, and the Friday kickoff at The Gathering, where A. Lange & Söhne sponsors the weekend. Jeffreys recommends the International Tennis Hall of Fame, the Audrain Museum and The Breakers for a full day of sightseeing. Jeffreys calls dinner at Clarke Cooke House unforgettable and a must-visit, and says the Audrain Concours is a must-visit for anyone interested in cars.

  • Clarke Cooke House dinner is a requirement, not a nice-to-have
  • Audrain Concours is a must-visit for car fans
