I have no complaints. The premises are well manicured and designed, with lilacs in bloom and other flowers on their way. There were many places to sit outside and just listen to sound of the peepers, birds, and rain. We rested as soundly as we would in the countryside, yet we were a 5 minute walk from cafes, restaurants, and... More

My wife and I have visited Manchester on many occasions during the summer months but this was our first time in Spring. The Barnstead was the perfect location for our trips to the book store and other shopping in the center of town and the innkeepers were very helpful with directions and recommendations for restaurants and other sites. We stayed... More

Every time I think of Vermont....I think of Manchester, Vermont and then I think I better e-mail Neil at The Barnstead Inn right away! We have stayed at this inn at least 5 to 6 times and we always leave saying...we can't wait until we return again...and we are still in their driveway...planning yet another visit! The Barnstead Inn is... More

My stay at the Barnstead Inn was exactly what I had hoped for. I was visiting friends living on a farm west of the tiny village of Dorset where accommodations were considerably more costly and without knowing how great the location of the Inn was, I booked it because it looked nice and was reasonably priced. As it turned out... More

Stayed here in the early '90s after a disappointing stay at the Equinox. We found it charming and friendly, and wanted to return for ski season. But life got in the way, and the years slipped by. Finally returned for a brief stay last week and were not disappointed. This is a quaint country inn with a variety of accommodations... More

Innkeeper Neil went out of his way to accommodate us and to make this such a wonderful... More

My wife and I spent a recent weekend in Manchester Vermont and stayed at the Barnstead Inn. The inn was once a farm and the rooms are in the restored barn complete with much of the old beams and woodwork. We stayed in the Battenkill suite, a very private and cozy bedroom with a king bed along with a separate... More

I was surprised to read a negative review about the Barnstead from a few months ago. I actually question if they had the name right of where they were staying since it was so totally opposite of anything we have experienced there!! My husband and I have stayed there several times and plan on going back next month. The rooms... More

My husband and I had an amazing time at the Barnstead Inn and cannot wait to go back! The rooms are great - we stayed in the Green River room - absolutely amazing. Really great size, very comfortable, warm/cozy atmosphere, clean, plenty of room for a couple - includes a sitting area as well as a kitchenette, plenty of closet... More
