Well I tried to book the Edward Lear hotel for a theatre trip for our anniversary but unfortunately we will have to go somewhere else as they dont take one night bookings for saturdays. This is a bit sad as my mother-in-law had stayed and said it was a nice hotel more

Internet kept failing. Tiny rooms. Baking hot everywhere especially breakfast room. Friendly staff. Hotel keeps external lights on all day despite blinding sunshine and despite being told twice - do these people have no concept of global warming? more
