We recently stayed at The Inn at Barnsley Resort with our family and had the best time. Patricia at the front desk was a standout — she was so welcoming and quickly became our favorite. We loved sitting by the fire pit at night making s’mores and walking the grounds to take in all the Christmas decorations. The water fountain was iced over and it was magical at night. One day we logged over 10,000 steps without even realizing it! Our boys enjoyed fishing, and we loved seeing all the animals around the property. We ate dinner one evening at The Woodlands, which was very convenient since it’s located on site. Our server was wonderful. While the food wasn’t cooked quite how we hoped — we ordered the chicken and the filet — our son’s burger was delicious. Overall, it was a great stay, and we will definitely be back.

I have been coming to Barnsley Gardens for years and each time am re-reminded of what a magical place it is. This time was no different. We were excited to share in the James Beard Foundation weekend experience. Just Incredible!! We enjoyed a history tour hosted by the talented Daisy and Karry ending in the ruins for a wine tasting with Master Sommelier Michael McNeill. Then on to the luxurious spa where Tanya’s deep tissue massage was the perfect way to top off the afternoon. I have had several massages at Barnsley and they never disappoint! On to Jules-night 1-where Kris, (amazing mixologist also one of the nicest people we know) made delicious drinks before Daisy again took such good care of us! There were 4 James Beard nominated chefs in town for the event. One being the executive chef at Jules! We loved visiting with them and especially Duane Nutter who did a book signing “Cutting Up In The Kitchen” which we read cover to cover in our well appointed cottage with a toasty fire and Etta James playing in the background. I mean come on right now! The main event for the weekend was at Jules on Saturday night. We were greeted with champagne and scrumptious pass arounds and the most delicious meal presented by these talented chefs. We met wonderful people and I know that a good time was had by all! Bravo!! Well done Barnsley staff! We can’t wait to come back!!

We recently stayed at the resort and had an outstanding experience from start to finish. The staff across the property were consistently kind, attentive, and genuinely focused on making our stay memorable. The grounds were beautifully maintained, and the golf course and putting green were truly first class—perfect for both serious play and casual enjoyment. Dining was a highlight of our visit. At Woodlands, the staff were extremely knowledgeable about the menu and offered excellent wine pairings that elevated the entire meal. They also went above and beyond for our 3-year-old, preparing simple buttered noodles and providing items to keep her entertained, which made a big difference for our family. An especially memorable evening was spent at Jules. Kris, our mixologist, crafted the best Old Fashioned I’ve had in years and surprised our table with dirty espresso martinis that were absolutely incredible. He truly made the night special. Louis, the manager, checked in multiple times to ensure everything exceeded expectations. There was a minor issue with wasps in the private dining room, but the staff handled it quickly by relocating us. While the main dining area was a bit louder, we still had a great time. The Godfrey Cottage rooms were gorgeous, and the property offered plenty to do for both couples and families. We’re already looking forward to returning.

Lovely property but much too expensive for quality of accommodations. The food was very good and the staff were very nice. Our house had ant infestation. Porches were not clean or swept. No corkscrew. One of our nespresso machines didn't not work. Too few nespresso pods provided for 13 people. They did bring more upon request. There was a tree outside our house that was not trimmed and we had to navigate the branches each time we left. My room only had one robe. Dusty blinds and mantel. Dead centipede on my vanity bench. All this I could overlook if I hadn't paid $8400 for two nights. I was not provided with a detailed invoice. My confirmation said total bill was $7400 yet when I got there the total bill was $8444. Supposedly because taxes and resort fee was not included but the math never really made sense but I did not receive an invoice so didn't see a breakdown. I would like to see the resort fee of $50 per room simply added to cost of room.

We recently attended a wedding at Barnsley Gardens, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The entire property feels like a hidden gem—beautiful, serene, and perfectly maintained. The historic ruins, lush gardens, and peaceful woodland setting created a stunning backdrop for the ceremony and photos. It felt like stepping into a storybook. The wedding itself was flawlessly coordinated. The staff were attentive, friendly, and incredibly professional, making sure every detail ran smoothly. From the ceremony space to the reception area, everything was thoughtfully arranged and beautifully decorated. The food was excellent, and the service throughout the evening was top-notch. What really stood out was the atmosphere. Barnsley Gardens manages to feel both grand and intimate at the same time. Whether we were walking the grounds, enjoying cocktails on the lawn, or dancing under the string lights at the reception, the environment added a magical touch to every moment.
