My husband and I wanted to get out of the city, and see a concert in Great Barrington. I have loved the area since I was a child, and really wanted to find and old fashioned B & B. Windflower was just as I hoped it would be, and more. The rooms were lovely, and in great condition. The whole facility was beautiful and welcoming...from the grounds to the two living rooms downstairs. there was even a beautiful old piano there! Breakfast incuded eggs from a neighboring farm, and the other guests were delightful. There was however, plenty of room there if we wanted to eat alone. The owners were very welcoming and helpful. I wish I could just move in...so I guess that means I will be coming back!!!

We enjoyed our 5 day stay at The WIndflower Inn. We were happily surprised to be upgraded to a larger room upon our arrival. The room was spacious and clean, but it was in the front of the house, facing the road, which made it very noisy with cars and trucks whizzing by day and night. We like to sleep with our windows open on cool summer nights. It was a bit difficult with all that noise!
The breakfasts were good. Loved the fresh fruit salad every morning. I'm a tea drinker, and although I had to ask for tea every morning with breakfast, (only coffee is out on the sideboard), they remembered the kind I like!
The furnishings in the common rooms are perfect for a 200+ year old inn! The grounds are very nice. The Inn is in a great location. Although we were hoping to be able to walk to town, it was a very short drive. The road is just too busy to walk on.
The hiking in the area is fantastic, and we never had to drive too far to the trails we had planned to hike.
We never did see tea and cookies in the afternoon, however, and we were always very thirsty when we returned. We thought that maybe we came in too late to take advantage of that mid-afternoon snack.
All in all, I'd say this is a very nice place to stay. Next time, however, we will request a room in the rear of the house!!!

Our hosts were nice and helpful. The rooms and the inn were beautiful. Highly recommended. They made special efforts to accommodate our unique circumstances as cyclists and speical dietary needs.

It is hard to imagine that one would feel as comfortable at a B&B as you do at home.
Thats what you get at the Windflower with Claudia and John. Those little touches that make you feel special. Even the chambermaids are one of a kind. We can not wait til next Aug to go back again. We must not forget Michaels great cooking and of course Stella.
