We found the hotel to be eclectic and really beautiful. Check in / out were easy. Breakfast was all gone by the time we got to the breakfast nook. There was a large outdoor concert in the area so they were completely booked. The spa was good but our couples massage was in different rooms. So, it felt more like two separate sessions.

We did not stay at the resort - we came it across accidentally when we were in the area for a ride and was looking for a place for lunch. Darby's came up as a recommended pub/tavern which is located on the resort. Resort is beautiful, staff is friendly and Darby's was a wonderful lunch with an extensive menu with many options and reasonably priced. We are already looking at going back and staying the night!

We went here for our 30th anniversary!! It was wonderful!!! Entering on the long tree lined driveway was just like out of a movie! The room was so nice. We loved the balcony. It was fun to walk through the mansion and see all the history! We ate breakfast and dinner in the mansion restaurant. So worth it. The food was outstanding and Taylor who was our waitress was amazing. There is also a continental breakfast that was very good as well! We walked the grounds and saw the ruins. This trip was just what we had hoped for !!!

Our room was huge and kept the period feel with modern touches. Not quite enough outlets to plug everything in, and one lamp was broken. Plenty of storage - two closets, a dresser, and drawers under the vanity area as well. Loved having the balcony, even if the weather was a bit chilly for hanging out outside. The rain let up enough for us to walk the trail to the slave monument. Nice library room was good for visiting with family and playing games. Enjoyed brunch in the mansion. Would stay here again when visiting the area.

The property is beautiful. The staff is kind, friendly and helpful. My massage with Agnes was so relaxing. Our dinner and drinks at the mansion restaurant was absolutely superb. Our room was lovely, comfortable and meticulously clean. What more can I say. I loved it.

I needed to stay the night in town for business and have always wanted to stay at Berry Hill. I so enjoyed it. I stayed three nights! The rooms are very spacious and well appointed. The balcony views are peaceful. The staff was attentive, and the spa was a delight. All this for a very reasonable price. I even participated in a mixology course last minute and had a blast.

This was our 2nd visit to this property. On the plus side, the rooms are very quiet and relatively clean & front desk staff friendly and welcoming. The floor in front of the coffee bar in the room was a bit sticky and I found a dead spider and a couple of ladybugs on the floor upon occupying. Although the room had a private balcony, had the weather been nice enough to go outside, we wouldn't have been able to. The door was swollen shut. Other signs of neglected exterior and interior maintenance were noted. The towel heater in the bathroom wasn't working. Plus one of the bath towels had dirt/dust on it that looked like it had been hanging on the rack for a very long time (I showed it to the front desk when checking out). The bartender, Austin, in the Library bar was very personable. We ate dinner the first nite at Darby's. The food was mediocre at best and wine was pricey at $12/glass, but the service was good. The exercise room was a bit sad. Pool was nice and warm. Despite having cable t.v., no major networks were available :‐/. The property itself really is historical and has many lovely elements, but I feel as if Covid hasn't been kind to this place.…

The Berry Hill Resort and Conference Center was a last-minute pick for us. We were booked into a nearby bed and breakfast, but the innkeeper called me the day before our journey to cancel our reservation because she was not feeling well. I went back online and did more searching when I came across Berry Hill. The drive was roughly four hours from Hampton Roads to South Boston. We are not as familiar with South-Central Virginia as we are with other parts of the state, so Berry Hill was a pleasant surprise. Approaching the 18th-century Greek Revival mansion is jaw-dropping - the road is tree-lined, and the mansion is magnificent. Although BH is just minutes from South Boston and Halifax, it sits on roughly 700 acres and is somewhat isolated, offering visitors privacy and a historical perspective. During our stay, we had a pleasant experience. Through Orbitz, we booked a deluxe queen room for roughly $125. We had about $21 in Orbucks or the price would have been about $147. Our room included a queen bed, a roomy bathroom with towel warmers, water bottles, a coffee maker, TV, sitting areas, a desk and balcony. The room was clean and quiet. We heard a smoke detector pinging in the room next door and the staff promptly fixed it. We also had trouble with our room cards, but the staff was very accommodating and helped us with that, too. There is room service, but we did not order anything. Our room was near the pool and gym. Both were clean and stocked with towels, though there did not seem to be heat in the gym. I am not sure if it was turned down, turned off or not working. I walked through the women's bathroom by the pool - it was clean and well maintained with soap and shampoo for the showers. The inn was built in the late 1990s, according to staff, and that is where we stayed. We had a continental breakfast; offerings included juice, coffee, oatmeal, bagels, muffins, and cereal. There also is lodging in the main mansion and in two "mansionettes." One staff member told me weddings are a big draw for Berry Hill. Busiest months are from late March through October. In the main mansion, there is fine dining on the weekends, and a "library bar." There also are activities such as live music, yoga by the pool and weekend specials. A conference for quilters was going on during our stay. We hope to return to Berry Hill before summer. Our list of things to do includes a meal at Darby's Tavern, which is at the resort and offers more hours and a casual dining option. We also want to explore the property more, especially the hiking trails, ruins, and out-buildings. We weren't there long enough, and it was very cold, so we decided to do those on another trip.…
