To Oakham to visit the Castle.
We stayed in The Admiral Hornblower in Oakham High Street. From its website we'd thought it was a fairly posh hotel, but it was really a pub with rooms. Our room was in a separate block at the end of he carpark, probably the old stable. The room had only three roof lights and it was hot and stuffy there. Apart from a free-standing rack with a few hangers, there was no storage; no wardrobe and no drawers.
The temperature outside was 30, so we walked to the park outside the castle grounds and read our Kindles.
The restaurant had a short menu and we had sirloin steak and chips. The chips were excellent, nicely chunky and crisp.
