The Burley Manor Hotel is the jewel in the crown of the New Forest and throughout its long history, Burley Manor has enjoyed many regal connections.
Parts of the estate were probably 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, but it was a further 80 years before the house became a hotel, when a restaurant and bedroom wing were added. During World War Two, the hotel was requisitioned and used as a military headquarters by Lord Montgomery and his chiefs of staff.
