Wheatleigh is located in the heart of Berkshire, two and a half hours from
New York, two hours from Boston, and walking distance from Tanglewood.

Guest Accommodations(Standard Room): From the original bedrooms of the Count and Countess to the aviary converted into a two story suite and made famous by Leonard Bernstein, each of the nineteen guest rooms is unique and individually decorated. The sensibility of contemporary design is combined with well chosen English and French antiques to enhance Wheatleigh's classical Renaissance architecture. Most rooms are large with high ceilings and are filled with light. Many have fireplaces, balconies and wonderful views of the mountains and lake, the sculpture garden or the front courtyard. All have private baths, and, in a bow to the demands of 20th century comfort, are equipped with telephones and individually controlled heat and air conditioning.

Dining - Wheatleigh Restaurant Like the famed French châteaux, the pride of Wheatleigh is
its internationally renowned restaurant. Walk past the Georgian sideboard. Follow the maitre
d' through the gleaming mahogany doors into the dining room. Notice the fine English wool
carpeting, the hand carved Chippendale chairs, the antique Waterford crystal chandeliers, and
the rare ceramic tile wall plaques commissioned by Doulton in 1830. Add to this exquisite
flower arrangements, warm candlelight, and beautifully carved moldings and fireplace. Service
that is discreet, polished and professional completes the setting.  The cuisine at Wheatleigh
is a striking contemporary American interpretation of the classic French cuisine. The emphasis
is on the finest and freshest ingredients procured locally and from around the world. Light
sauces enhance rather than mask flavors. Choose wine from our award winning list, which offers
exceptional selections from four continents. The ultimate compliment to Wheatleigh's restaurant
comes from our well traveled guests, who regularly place it in a class with the best anywhere.
