“Perfect setting for Tanglewood”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

We chose to stay here as part of a tour that included a James Taylor concert. Tanglewood is just a short drive down the road so the b&b was perfect.
Our room was very comfortable and we appreciated being able to make our own beverages in the residents kitchen down the hallway.
Breakfasts provided lots of choice and perfect to start the day.
Restaurant recommendations were great for us - all within walking distance.

“Relaxing getaway.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 December 2011

I have stayed at Brook Farm twice with my wife and had great experiences both times. It has become a very special place for us and we hope to return. If you're goal is to relax, this is a great spot. The innkeepers are great and the breakfast is delicious.

“mother and daughter getaway”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 November 2011

This was an experience of poetry and grace. It is difficult to find the perfect Inn but in Brook Farm we did just that. Phil and Linda were gracious and helpful, but truly just a pleasure to talk with. We stayed in the poet's room and felt comfortable without ostentation, elegant without feeling we were in a museum. We felt at home and as literary people were most thrilled with the poetry theme. I visit the area every summer and often stay in different inns. From now on I will always visit Brook Farm first.

“Memorable first visit to B&B”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 November 2011

Lovely house! Phil and Linda were warm and welcoming hosts. We stayed in the Cosy hideaway attic room.. a zillion thanks to Phil for helping us lug our luggage up the short but rather challenging stairs! Breakfast was great, especially liked the vegetable quiche.

Room Tip: If you have heavy luggage, try not to book the attic room.

Thank you to this guest, and all the others who take the time to write kind remarks. We're always delighted and gratified that our hospitality and breakfasts are enjoyed and appreciated. Just want to take this opportunity to note that our 15 rooms vary greatly in size. There are smaller, third floor rooms, large canopy bedrooms with wood-burning fireplaces on the first and second floors, and enormous rooms in the carriage house with jacuzzi tubs and other amenities. All guests, regardless of the room they select, can enjoy the large sitting room and library, both with fireplaces, and our ample breakfast buffet.

“Tips for Brook Farm Inn”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2011
2
people found this review helpful

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay but there are some things we learned that may be helpful to other travelers. First, our hosts Phil and Linda were wonderful, and would do anything for us. Secondly, the place was clean and charming. It's close to down town Lenox, and we found plenty to do in the area. What might be helpful is to know that the stairs to the third floor are exceptionally steep, which was no big deal for us but for older travelers might be tough so avoid the third floor. We stayed in the Cozy Hideaway room. It was cozy and the website pictures are accurate, but be aware that with two people in the bed, one person will have a challenge to get out of bed without climbing over the other person. Again, this was no problem for us but may be for others. The room was small, but adequate and the bathroom was roomy. The only other thing to note is that I had a different idea about what a buffet breakfast was. It was served buffet style, but there was only one hot item and I found it to be average. Overall though it was a great experience and I would come back and I would also recommend Brook Farm to friends.
