One frequently told story involves a guest who, returning to his locked room, found the bed made and his clothes neatly folded – far more tidy than he had left it – even though no staff had been by. Another account describes a spectral figure of a maid spotted on the landing after midnight, who then faded away when approached. Staff performing nightly checks have heard distinct feminine humming coming from empty rooms, reminiscent of a Victorian housemaid softly singing to herself while working. There are also reports of the maid ghost gently tapping on room doors as if to check if guests need anything; when guests answer the door – no one’s there. None of the happenings are frightening; instead they are oddly reassuring.
