OK, a fairly easy one. No Googling, mind...

Right continent, but it's a fair old way from new England. Clue: it's a hotel.

Can you check out but never leave??

No, wrong state. It does have a Arts & Entertainment reason for its fame though..

Is it the Overlook Hotel?

border-rider · « **Reply #2407 on:** 21 January, 2010, 10:26:07 pm »

Pretty much, yes. It's the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado - the Overlook was based on this after Mr & Mrs King had a spooky stay there.

Wow. Really? I was only having a daft guess.

Blorenge, Sugarloaf and Skirrid ? (but I don't think so...)

Deano · « **Reply #2411 on:** 21 January, 2010, 10:46:00 pm »

No. It's Scott-ish.

I looked at Deano's photo and thought "Sugarloaf", tho we're told that's incorrect. Scottish, then - somewhere in The Pentlands?

Eildon Hills from Scott's View?

Jaded · « **Reply #2414 on:** 22 January, 2010, 12:20:33 am »

Eildons. I was going to post that before I saw the last post, honest.

Tourist Tony · « **Reply #2415 on:** 22 January, 2010, 01:07:38 am »

So was I.

Rig of Jarkness · « **Reply #2416 on:** 22 January, 2010, 07:03:53 am »

And another that I've missed !

Aye, you're right, as you know. There's a cheesy clue above: it's not just my dodgy typing.

Another harbour:

Stonehaven?
You got it, JH.
I can't remember the name of the pub, but ISTR the Pingus being mighty pleased with the selection of beers on offer.

The Marine Hotel

No, this side of the Channel

Doesn't look much like Loch Ness...
