We picked a B&B out of the book.  Sounded OK, however it was dark, dank and smelled of old carpet and paint.  Half done up, it was somewhat scruffy inside – but it needed it, hadn’t been changed since the 50’s.  It was also full of house mites and I sneezed all night.  The landlady, who was heavily into alternative medicine, left lavender (and crystals) everywhere so it smelled of that too. We figured out we slept in the bed wherein her mum died.  It was cold and rainy.

And I left my pillow and toothbrush behind.

We left as soon as possible, never to return.
