I love Berry Hill Mansion and resort. I come regularly several times yearly. The staff is so friendly, nice and accomodating and the room/property is immaculate! The mansion itself is like stepping into history!
Beautiful property. Rooms are elegant, up-to-date, and super clean.
Randomly booked this on Expedia when I took the family to a race at the Speedway. Everything else was booked and this popped up as an option. It was a short drive away. BEAUTIFUL resort! We had the dog with us, but the whole family was pleased with how amazing this place was. I've been in VA my whole life, but have never made my way down to this area. Absolutely gorgeous grounds. There was a wedding party the night we arrived, but the hotel was serene and quiet, I'd come back to the area just to stay at the resort! I really wish we had a day or two to enjoy it. We checked-in late and left early, but it looked beautiful. Nice bar/restaurant (just walked through), bu the pool looked nice too. I think we lucked out with the random booking. I'm giving it 5 stars for what we were expecting. Only negative was the dated TV w/ analog signal that was a little wobbly. Really not worth the mention for the price, but we were only there for a few hours before leaving for kids travel sports early in the morning. Would defintely book again for a longer duration! Two thumbs up!
