Narrative:

While on a ferry flight to keyw; we were cleared direct to the airport shortly after takeoff. Since the weather was IFR in keyw; we were next cleared direct to gucel to set us up for the RNAV (GPS) runway 27. About 40 miles north; we were cleared direct to burpy. A short time later; we were told to cross burpy at 1500 feet and given approach clearance for the RNAV (GPS) runway 27. We started our descent and leveled off at 1500 feet. About 10 miles outside of burpy; we got an obstacle warning from our GPWS. A climb was initiated and ATC was contacted. The warning stopped as we climbed through 3;500-4;000 feet. Once clear; we queried ATC and descended back down; crossing burpy at 1500 feet and performed a stable approach and normal landing.
