Nestled in a secluded area on the campus of Huron University College, Brough House offers a unique experience and has a variety of features that set it apart from other hotels. Tranquil and private, and with generous facilities for a variety of events, Brough Hall is an ideal location for a retreat, board meeting, reception or gathering.
This Tudor-style mansion was originally built and owned by the Cronyn family in 1936. The property was named “Burnlea” in recognition of the distinctive physical characteristics of the property, reminiscent of the Cronyn’s ancestral home in Scotland, and decorated with unique fixtures purchased on a trip to Italy. In 1954, Burnlea was sold to 12 Anglican laypeople who presented it to the College as a residence for theological students. The residence was re-named “Brough” in memory of Archdeacon C.C. Brough, a close friend of the late Bishop Cronyn. Later in 1960 it became a women’s residence, and is now used as a Guest House.
