Guide for tourists.

Finding the hotel was the first problem. The car-nav would only accept Crown Hotel Watton. So we had a wasted extra trip. The host at Watton told us it happens repeatedly. The room was dark but could be lightened somewhat by standing on the bed to reach a switch. Every time I sat down the chair threatened to fall apart. The sockets were at floor level. The switches to control shower were at ceiling level. The meal was fairly good but let down by other details.
