	Berry Hill Plantation Resort
_______________	3105 River Rd South Boston, Virginia, 24592 (434)-517-7000 http://www.berryhillplanta tionresort.com bhprsales@benchmarkm anagement.com Marveling at one of the finest examples of Greek Revival architecture in Virginia as you travel up the tree-lined drive, you’d almost expect Scarlett to slip through the massive columns and glide down the stairs to meet you. Built in 1842, this eight-columned home is the quintessential southern antebellum mansion, once the seat of one of the most successful tobacco plantations in the region. Previous owners of the property included Colonel Edward Carrington, who fought alongside General Nathaniel Greene in the Revolutionary War. Berry Hill lay in ruins for nearly 50 years before being meticulously restored to its original pre-Civil War grandeur. Today, you can enjoy gracious southern ambience in one of the 92 guest rooms of the Berry Hill Plantation Resort during your visit to Southern Virginia, or just tour the home.
