Barnsley House was a beautiful house with fantastic hosts and lots of gorgeous furnishings. Barry and Rod made us feel so welcomed (even though we only gave a few hours notice!). From the open fireplaces to the scones, jam and cream this was better than a home away from home. We also appreciated their tips on where to go, what... More

We stayed at Barnsley House at the start of a 10 day cycling holiday, and the only problem with it is that everywhere else we stayed wasn't as good. There are many elements of Barnsley House worth praise - comfortable bed, beautiful furnishings, fine garden, excellent breakfast, the gorgeous conservatory, welcome afternoon tea, good value for money - but what...

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Barnsley House. The Elizabeth Retreat room was beautiful. The open fire crackling away in the evening was lovely and the spa bath proved perfect following our bike ride on the rail trail. Our hosts Rod and Barry were fantastic, providing us with a sumptuous hot breakfast each morning and giving us with all the... More

What a great experience. Our room was immaculate, open fireplace, a giant spa in the bathroom, quiet, sunny, I could go on! There are different rooms to relax in, the conservatory overlooking one of the gardens is a must for the complementary welcoming afternoon tea/coffee. Breakfast was generous, fresh and hot. The hosts, Rod and Barry make the place perfect.... More

My first visit to Barnsley House was a wonderful experience. the others in our Group had been before and told me how good it was and I can now agree. We spent 3 nights over the Australia Day long weekend and were very pleased with the comfort and hospitality provided by Rod and barry. We were greeted on arrival with... More

What a great 3 nights we had with 4 other couples over the New Year. Barry & Rod were brilliant hosts, from the moment they welcomed us to their charming house. Beautifully appointed, with the tiniest detail attended to. The air-conditioned room was so comfortable, the king size bed a joy to sleep in. Easy walking distance to the town... More

My husband & I and 3 couples (all close friends) spent 3 nights at this delightful & professionally hosted B&B. Rod & Barry sure know their 'stuff', from recommending tourist opportunities, making & confirming bookings, having a beautifully prepared cooked breakfast ready for us every morning with plenty of choice, mingling with guests, and to top it off creating a...

My boyfriend and I stayed in the Elizabeth Retreat at Barnsley House for 1 night and were really impressed! Barnsley House is only a short drive away from the centre of Beechworth. The house is charming, with distinctive Victorian style decor and a beautiful terraced garden. The Elizabeth Retreat had everything we could ask for – a fridge, TV with... More

My wife & I along with four other couples - all close friends, "took over" Barnsley House over the 2012 New Year weekend - and what a great decision it was. Barnsley is about a 10 minute walk/talk from Main Street. The house and garden is tops and obviously tended by enthusiasts. Hosts were accommodating, interacted and mingled with us,... More
