Shannon Appelcline commented that "There were 15 actual adventure modules published in MERP's original adventure line, from Bree and the Barrow-Downs (1984) to Dark Mage of Rhuduar (1989), but up until 1987 these read more like small-focus setting books, with a few (usually very short) adventures thrown in."

Jon Sutherland reviewed Bree and the Barrow-Downs for White Dwarf #58, giving it an overall rating of 6 out of 10, and stated that "The Barrow Downs present only a smash and grab basis for scenarios, even then you would need a small army to get out alive! The colour maps are useful, though." [3]
Andy Blakeman reviewed Bree and the Barrow Downs for Imagine magazine, and stated that "Bree and the Barrow Downs is my favourite; the degree of characterisation in the descriptions of the inhabitants of Bree-land is heartening, and the Barrows themselves provide an interesting bit of adventure."

William A. Barton reviewed Bree and the Barrow-Downs in The Space Gamer No. 73. [1]
