All
4 bedrooms at the Chequers are decorated using period pieces in keeping
with the ambience of the building and all rooms are en-suite with tea
& coffee making facilities. We have 2 double rooms, 1 family room
(sleeping 3) and a twin room available.
Our four poster bedroom
has a wealth of romantic charm and is ideal for a special night away
or for the more adventurous, our haunted room boasts a resident Napoleonic
soldier who makes occasional appearances when the mood takes him. Apparently,
upon his return from the wars in around 1812 he stayed at the Inn and
was plied with drink one evening by a young lass.
When he retired to bed
suitably anaesthetised, she crept into his bedroom to rob him. He awoke
however, and in the ensuing struggle she stabbed him and fled but the
poor man died from his wounds. |
