We loved our stay at Briar Barn Inn and wish we would have stayed longer! The room was so clean and had everything we needed. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. We loved eating dinner at The Grove as well. We can’t wait to come back again someday.

Nice stay, not memorable.

The property is nice, not much character in the way of uniqueness. The bathroom was wonderful, deep bathtub with sea salts and spacious shower. No amenities offered except soap and lotion. The breakfast was minimal with yogurt and muffins. Grove Restaurant was nice, but again nothing unique or spectacular. For an event this would be a lovely venue. For a couple or family, so-so
