Leading up to my stay at Burkleigh House I had requested to be able to do an early check-in and also have my Fiance be accompanied by some family and friends. The management met my every request. The room was squeaky clean, beautiful and very comfortable. The next morning, we had an amazing breakfast with the kindest of staff constantly making sure we have everything we desire. We truly loved our stay and appreciate the management accommodating our every request.
