Hotel Description: Reputed to be the oldest hotel in England, one time host to Mary Queen of Scots. Daniel Defoe writing in 1727 and staying at the hotel, said, "This is indeed a very special place." Which of course it is, even to this day. The Old Hall's mellowed walls and many ancient rooms reflect the pedigree of its rich past, yet providing every comfort, cuisine and high technology expected from the best hotels of today.
