Diamond Public Relations has been named agency of record for northwest Georgia's Barnsley Resort.

Barnsley Resort

The Adairsville, Georgia-based resort, located 60 miles north of Atlanta, is situated on a historic 3,300-acre Southern plantation originally constructed in the 1840s.

The estate, which is often used for weddings and corporate retreats, currently offers 90 guest rooms and suites inside four dozen English-inspired cottages. It will see a major expansion this year, including a new 55-room inn and a 14,300-square-foot conference center, both of which should be complete by late 2017.

The tourism and hospitality agency will handle all North American PR efforts on behalf of Barnsley as it prepares to unveil its new Inn property.

Miami-based Diamond, which maintains a second office in Los Angeles, manages PR efforts for more than two-dozen resorts throughout the U.S., Caribbean, Central/South America and Europe.
