Bed and Breakfast Description

The Blackberry River Inn is a converted Colonial mansion built in 1763. The Inn lies nestled in the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains on 27 lush scenic acres. Restored to original elegance, the Colonial Williamsburg-era building houses 20 guestrooms, featuring working fireplaces.

Common areas include 3 sitting parlors and a cherry paneled library, all with fireplaces.
A sun-filled morning room is where guests enjoy the Inn's complimentary, gourmet country breakfast.

Two of our five luxurious suites feature Jacuzzis and fridges. All suits have fireplaces, king beds, extra sitting rooms with couches and sitting spaces, as well as cable TV, VCR, DVD, hair dryers, and phones. You will also find a special gift of our proprietary wine and welcome package awaiting your arrival in these premier rooms.

The Master Bedrooms offer either an inviting king or queen bed with working fireplaces to add to the romance. You will love the deck overlooking the gardens or the antique claw-foot bathtub that add character and charm to your stay.

Stay in the Carriage House and enjoy rooms with queen beds or two twin beds, private bathrooms and the added privacy of a separate building. Some rooms in the Carriage House adjoin to create a family suite that is great for the kids.

Perfect setting during any season for weddings, small parties, corporate functions, or just a quiet retreat.
