From the breakfast room you can look out onto the Pele Tower.

 No self respecting Pele Tower would be complete without its very own ghost. The “White Lady” of Cresswell is a tragic figure who has been sighted regularly since the early middle Ages. The only daughter of the Baron of Cresswell, this young woman planned to marry her Danish Prince. Unfortunately her three brothers thought otherwise and killed the handsome prince as he crossed the dunes to meet his young lover – a fate witnessed by the damsel as she stood on the Pele Tower awaiting his arrival. In her grief the young girl threw herself from the Pele Tower, dying instantly. The White Lady has been seen on the anniversary of the lovers’ death as she paces about the Pele Tower, searching into the distance for her prince.
