-Legend has it that in 1610 a family of [[Romani people|Gypsy]] musicians arrived to stay the night. On a mission to seek the [[Holy Grail]], they had travelled throughout Europe.  They had been brought to England after hearing stories of its location within Britain. That night the banjo and flute playing Gypsies stayed at the inn. In the early hours of the morning the caravan parked in the coach hall (now garden area) was burnt to the ground with the two children asleep in it. According to the legend, people staying at the hotel still hear the boy and girl running in the halls at night, the boy and girl appear in the mirrors in the bathrooms in the en-suite bedrooms, and banjos and flutes are heard.
