Love it!
I love the Briar Barn Inn! I have stayed twice for a solo getaway. So relaxing, and the beds are so comfortable. This time my room was the closest to the reception, however, and I will ask to not be so close to the reception in the future as it was noisier than the room I last stayed in, down the hall.
We had a great time at the Briar Barn for our Massachusetts stay-cation!

We had a lovely one night stay. We were upgraded to the king suite and it was perfect. So cozy and comfortable that once we checked in we didn’t want to leave the room so we ordered takeaway from the restaurant on site. Food was great. Bed was very comfortable. Nice coffee and pastries for breakfast in the lobby the next morning. Will definitely come back if we are in the area again!
