Greetings from a small town in the Midlands. The hotel is in Victorian style and I'm so GLAD that we have an older Georgian place and not this - err - words don't describe. It's a single room, and as you would expect that means that there wouldn't have been room for a double bed in here. A pine sideboard / desk hosts water, a "Chapel House - Welcome" folder, an ornate glass tray with three ornate empty pots and a forth curious piece which baffles me. There's also a stuffed bear, about 9" tall, wearing Grandma glasses and a long Victorian dress to preserve its modesty (or so I assume - I have NOT looked up its dress). No really suitable chair to sit at the desk, but in any case it wouldn't be possible to pull a chair up here properly.
The toilet has a flowery pattern on it. I thought I disliked avocado but this is something else.
I told Lisa about the bear over the phone and she said "take a picture". I replied "I already have".
