I can't for the life of me think why I'm asking this on Scoobynet, but hell - everything else that gets asked seems to get answered by you guys/gals so we'll give it a go.

I am looking for hotels preferably in the NW of England that have an old fashioned look to the rooms. Specifically I would love to find one that had bathrooms with the old style free standing baths - the ones on brass feet. It doesn't have to be old, just old fashioned in style.

In case you're wondering it's for a mate who needs this sort of look for an upcoming photo shoot and he's having no luck so far.

If anyone has any suggestions (sensible ones ) then please fire away.

Thanks in advance.

The Wordsworth in Grasmere is good for this - I stayed there a couple of years ago and the en suite had a stunning massive Victorian stand alone iron bath with all copper pipes up to an old shower head and with jets coming up from the bottom of the bath etc. Looked like the machine from the Kate Bush Cloudbusting video!
