点评:Rough Point is the fifth mansion that we toured in Newport and the final one. As one might expect, it is a beautiful house but it also has a very nice property with lovely gardens - even in the second part of October!
Unlike the 4 others that were run by the Preservation Society of Newport, Rough Point is run by the Newport Restoration Foundation (founded by Doris Duke). Thus, it has a separate fee but it was worth every penny.
Rough Point also is the most beautiful of all the Newport Mansions, as seen from the Cliff Walk. With the little gorge and the flowers, it is just perfect!
Rough Point is actually called Rough Point Museum, even though it is not all that different to tour that the other mansions in Newport. I think that itis called a museum because it does celebrate the life of Doris Duke, the tobacco Heiress who owned the property.

与纽波特保护协会管理的其他 4 个基金会不同,Rough Point 是由纽波特恢复基金会(由 Doris Duke 创立)管理的。因此,它需要单独付费,但每一分钱都是值得的。
从悬崖步道上看,拉夫角 (Rough Point) 也是所有纽波特豪宅中最美丽的。配上小峡谷和花,真是绝配!
Rough Point 实际上被称为 Rough Point 博物馆,尽管参观它与纽波特的其他豪宅并没有什么不同。我认为它被称为博物馆是因为它确实纪念了拥有该财产的烟草女继承人多丽丝杜克的生活。
