Synopsis

Creakie Hall is home to Miasma and Marmaduke Bogey-Mandeville - they've been playing the same game of poker since 1665! The flesh-and-bloods Polly, George and their Aunt Gardenia Bogey-Mandeville share the Hall. When it is in danger of collapsing, Miasma and Marmaduke decide to help their descendents make some money and so the Hall becomes The Creakie Hall Hotel. Life is never boring and the story concludes with a fussy pair of hotel inspectors being magically persuaded to write a good review of the place, and with an eccentric film-maker giving the family a gold bar as a tip for an extraordinary holiday.
