Hidden Gem! So happy we were able to book a room through Expedia when the Briar Barn Inn showed no availability. The property was booked for a Wedding; grateful they kept a room open for you. We LOVE this hotel.

It’s right outside of Newburyport and that’s why we love it. Quick drive into Newburyport for shopping and other activities. Quick drive into Portsmouth NH too,, we have gone to Salem and Ipswich also. We love the Briar Barn Inn.

Not peaceful this time.

I usually love the Briar Barn Inn for solo, recuperative getaways. I did not enjoy it so much this time, as there apparently was a wedding party staying at the Inn that made constant loud noise in the hallway until finally quiet hours kicked in and I called the front desk. But they were up making noise again by around 7am. My room was on the second flood and nearly at the end of the hall, but it still did not keep me from hearing all of the noise--looks of loud walking/running in the hall, lots of loud talking (even quiet talking was completely audible--no noise barrier), and kids running around. Not the relaxing getaway that I had so looked forward to. If you're planning a quiet stay, I would call and be sure it's not overlapping with a wedding.
