As featured on Most Haunted we can confirm that this hotel is haunted. Please ask a member of staff for a copy of our ghost stories.

We have a private car park which has 25 spaces, and we have 31 Bedrooms. We do not reserve spaces except for Blue Badge Holders. We usually manage to host all car users as we are only 5 minutes walk from the train station, as guests often use this mode of transport.. If additional spaces are required there are two car parks within 5 minutes walk, which reception on your arrival will be able to direct you to. Regards The Mermaid.

We allow dogs in the rooms but unfortunately not in our bar, restaurant or lounges. A charge of £5 per, pet per night is charged.

Thank you for your message. Our rooms are various sizes. Could you please advise possible dates so we can check availability (our reservations system is 'live') and provide a few more details about number of guests etc.so we can assist. Many thanks

We would be happy to honour the same price for a second night. We have rooms available on 6th but not 8th July. I do hope this helps. Kind regards, Judith

Dear Guest, We have a small car park located to the rear of the hotel. Should this be full on your arrival a member of the team will direct you to a public car park a short walk from the hotel. Kind regards Reservations

Thank you for your question. Due to the layout of the hotel we do not have any rooms located on the Ground Floor. We are sorry for any dissapointment caused. Kind regards Reception

Dear Guest, We are not aware that Enid Blyton based any of the Famous Five books on The Mermaid. The only author who used the Mermaid is Malcom Saville in the Gay Dolphin books. Kind regards Reservations

Of course, yes. The Mermaid Inn has the option of booking Dinner (3 courses), Bed & Breakfast. We have two standard twin rooms and some superior rooms/family suites, which have more than one bed.

The Mermaid was rebuilt in 1420, with cellars dated to 1156. There are so many stories and reported experiences. Google Most Haunted.

Thank you for your question. We have a Superior Four Poster Bedded room called James. Guests can make requests at the time the reservation is made however these are not guaranteed. Regards Reservations

Most of our beds are standard 4' 6" doubles, although we do have some 5' kingsize beds and our twin rooms have link together beds so would become a 6' Queensize bed.

Thank you for your question. The Mermaid has Standard Twin and Superiour Twin bedded rooms. Should these be available on your date it will give you the option to book one of those. Unfortunately, if they do not appear they have already been booked.
