The Communal Lounge	My Bedroom	Tapestry On My Bedroom Wall

The open fire in the Communal area was always alight, and the bar was operated on an honesty system, which means you took what you wanted, wrote down what you took in a log book and paid up at the end of your stay. It's nice to be trusted like this; I've not come across the system here in England before (although it's common enough in Africa). The rooms were comfy and warm, the floorboards creaked nicely and there was a tapestry on the wall - never had that before either, usually it's just a print of an old master. The breakfast was ok, whatever you wanted from the cereal and fruit buffet plus a cook-up of your choice - fish, full English or vegetarian, and served quickly by the very friendly staff. Another thing I liked about the staff apart from their friendliess was the fact that they knew when to leave you alone, in fact, you wouldn't have known they were there until you wanted them, when they were easily found. The area around abouts is a walkers paradise, and often walkers have dogs, so it's lucky that Beck Hall is very dog friendly...
