Property Overview
The tranquil Berkshire County in Massachusetts is famous for having inspired such writers as Hawthorne, Melville and Wharton; the latter had an estate in the historic town of Lenox, where she wrote The House of Mirth. Housed in a fin-de-siècle mansion surrounded by a Fredrick Law Olmsted–designed park, Wheatleigh is the kind of special country resort that blends beautifully into its fabled setting. Built in the style of a Florentine palazzo, the hotel retains such original details as Tiffany windows. The interiors, however, feature understated but artfully designed spaces. Emphasis is placed on courteous service and top-notch cuisine. The restaurant with its stunning glass enclosed terrace is ever-popular, especially during the annual Tanglewood music festival nearby.
Property Highlights
1 / Culture
The Berkshires are an East Coast mecca for the arts, and Wheatleigh is within walking distance of Tanglewood, the summer home of the Boston Symphony.
2 / Dining
Guests may choose between the elegant gourmet gastronomy of the Dining Room or the more casual, everyday dining of the Library.
3 / Location
Built as a wedding present from a real estate tycoon to his daughter in 1893, Wheatleigh sits on 22 acres surrounded by lakes and mountains.
