"The key to the secret room is hidden in a little clock at the reception desk, after which you follow the markings of a camellia - Chanel's signature flower - to the room."
"Inside, the room is small, but Chanel is everywhere: There are specially commissioned tweed fabrics in greens and burgundy from Linton mill, with whom Chanel started working back in 1928."
"The entry into the mirrored walk-in wardrobe is hidden behind screens, reflecting Chanel's dislike for doors, hoping guests might forget to leave."
"Staying at the Fife Arms feels like you're living partly in a museum, part art gallery, and entirely in a world unto its own."
