This building was a hideout & home for the catholic minority. Later a hunting lodge for the wealthy & now hotel & pub. Staff has been more than spooked by being physically grabbed by the ankles whilst hearing voices speaking Latin, muffled laughter & ghostly sightings of a man, woman & boy - More info
