The Belle Flower Inn |
As it turns out the rumours of a haunting at this charming old inn have, by all accounts, turned out to be true and some poltergeist activity has been recently reported. I myself have stayed at the Belle Flower several times and although some odd occurrences were noted, it wasn't anything alarming enough to keep me from returning.

A missing toothbrush and a muddy foot print on the duvet were not sufficient to curtail my visits. However, events of a more serious and bizarre nature have recently been reported. One guest, Pedal Mueller, was seen levitating several feet above her bed while sleeping and later awoke to find herself inexplicably in the garden. Calming elixirs were provided and she made a swift and complete recovery. Tales of an even more sinister nature have also been heard but I wouldn't want to rush to any hasty conclusions.
Luckily for us business has slowed down somewhat and a room is now a lot easier to obtain at Ye Olde Belle Flower than it used to be. I'm quite sure that the more adventurous of us

So the next time you find yourself trekking on "the other side" and looking for a place to bed down for the night, you could do a lot worse than The Belle Flower Inn..
And a word to the wise - breakfast will not be served past 8:30 so you'll have to get up early. You won't be sorry. Try the toast !
Happy travels and peace be with you.

What a great concept for a post, and a great place to visit with it. There's not only wonderful visual art here.
Nothing wrong with a bit of a haunting, adds a bit of character and charm no? rather here than Travelodge any day!
The faces are fun, they look a bit like they could be caricatures.
"wow" I want to go and stay there. Better still I would love to own one of these B & B's. Thank you for sharing Larry. xxx
Thanks Porky - I have a few more excursions planned.
Thanks AA - not caricature but rather a serious representation of the personalities and events in the unfolding drama. ;)
Thanks Tiny Pearl and you're welcome.
I wish you could find one of those magical golden pocket watches that can make time stand still for everybody else while you work on some of your projects, with the caveat that it would have to be one with an enchanted watch fob that ensured that as long as you wore the watch, you would not age a moment during your "time out." -- if wishes were horses, that one would be a grey dappled Percheron. . . from my mouth to the genie's ear. . .
WOL - that has always been my wish also - although I didn't realize it until you mentioned - keeping my fingers crossed.
