Great experience! The only thing I would say it you can hear some of the noise in the hallway in the room. But it was clean, peaceful, and well done. My favorite part was the bathtub with salts! It was a nice touch

Briar Barn is truly everything ne wants in a hotel stay- custom, fantastic staff, lovely extra ammenities (coffee, pasteries, water, great soaps/lotions). The best part for us was the comfortable bed, nice soaking tub and sitting in front of the fire in our private room on our 17th anniversay!! The entire site is thoughtfully decorated with antiques that intrigue, and the "bones" of Briar Barn remain new and contemporary- so refreshing!!! We will most certainly be back!

Beautiful property. Room was amazing. Slept well……NO BREAKFAST other than cold muffins and lukewarm coffee in the lobby. For the price of the rooms, sit down hot breakfast options should be available. Should have just stayed at a Hampton Inn…..
