Lovely in every way

Stunning property! Each room had a unique personality. We could envision what ppl would be doing in each room back in the day. Men smoking cigars and drinking bourbon in the parlor with the leather sofas and the Gauguin lounge. The ladies gathering in the lovely living room with the fireplace and chandelier. Lots of space but honestly we hung out in the enormous sunny kitchen. I was envisioning a small summer wedding in the yard with a big white tent. I look forward to visiting again in the warmer months!

Absolutely Lovely

Thank you so much for a lovely stay. We would highly recommend your home to anyone looking for a family home, beautifully appointed. Seeing as there is a tennis court I asked if we could send a basketball net for the kids and they not only accommodated but had it put together upon arrival. It was fantastic service! Our family tends to hang in the kitchen and it was truly delightful. The owner’s stylish taste and thoughtfulness was especially appreciated here. It’s not only spacious but appliances were high end and the light in the morning was warm and inviting. Location is about 5 min to Great Barrington and 10 min to Berkshire School so in terms of distance and convenience to both areas it suited us well. We have already booked again and look forward to it!

House with a lot of possibilities

Over all we had a good time. The kitchen was good. The house has a lot of repairs that needed to be done. Front door and door to out to garage was not secured. The only tv that worked was tv room, would prefer larger TVs. Microwave was broke (turned on to warm muffin and was sparking). One of the gates to the tennis court was broke-falling down, weeds growing at the net. You can tell there has been some updates could use more.

About the host

Hosted by Justin Henderson

We are the Henderson family. Originally from the Berkshires, Manor Lane is my childhood home. My husband and I have recently purchased Manor Lane and have begun the process of restoring this magical Berkshire Estate. We currently reside in Santa Barbara and visit the Berkshires as often as possible. There is no place like home, especially this French Manor Home set in the heart of the Beautiful Berkshire Mountains. We are located only 2.5 miles to the center of Great Barrington. We welcome you to enjoy the charm and mystique that is Manor Lane.

Sincerely,
Abigail Henderson
