Burley Manor is the jewel in the crown of New Forest Hotels and throughout its long history, it has enjoyed many regal connections. The Burley Manor hotel is close to Ringwood, inside the designated New Forest National Park.
Parts of the estate are said to have been laid out in Saxon times and must have existed before the Domesday Book was compiled in 1086. Later, for nearly 200 years, Burley was a Royal Manor. The current building was erected in 1852, with the restaurant and bedroom wing being added some 80 years later. During World War Two, the hotel was requisitioned and used as a military headquarters. During the past 25 years the baronial-style hotel has been considerably upgraded and refurbished, to become the beautiful New Forest hotel it is today.
