    friendly staff
    top-notch dining
    real ale
    tight en suite

    Had a fantastic time with friends! We had a blast exploring nearby beaches and enjoying a vibrant local market. The staff were super friendly and helped us feel right at home. The on-site dining was top-notch, especially the real ale brewed here! Just a heads up, parking can be tricky during the day, but it was fine in the evening.

    The only downside was the tightness of the en suite bathroom. The shower was a bit cramped and could use some cleaning attention around the edges.

    excellent stay but minor issues

    The welcome from Stewart and Wendy made an outstanding impression. The sea view room was a highlight, with an incredibly comfortable bed that ensured a restful night.

    The shower pressure could be improved.

    tricky entrance

    I loved my stay at The Ship Inn. The sea view from my room was incredible. The decor felt modern and classy. Relaxing on the terrace with a glass of wine was a highlight. The room had a comfortable bed and a great coffee machine, which added to the experience. The breakfast served was delicious, with great options cooked to order. The staff were very friendly and made me feel welcomed. I noticed a few issues with the wifi being spotty at times, and the bathroom could've been slightly larger. finding the entrance late at night was a bit tricky.

    Cozy seaside stay with early brekkie!

    We had the best time! The room was super clean and comfy, right by the sea. The staff was super friendly, especially when they made us a take-away breakfast since we had an early start. The dining experience was great too. Just wish there were more parking spots available.

    we loved our stay at the ship inn! the room was super comfy and had an amazin view of the sea. breakfast was delicious with great options, and the staff were really friendly and helpful. the location is perfect for a beach stroll, and we appreciated the cozy vibe of the pub. it was a nice touch with the well-stocked tea station in our room!

    the bathroom could've been a bit bigger and there were a few issues with the wifi. also, finding the entrance late at night was kinda tricky.

    excellent food

    Really enjoyed the large, comfy room with a sea view. The restaurant served excellent food with unique touches, making our evening special. Just a short walk to the beach was a nice bonus.

    Felt almost like at home, nothing to complain about.
