    noise disturbance
    small space

    The double room was cozy, with comfy bedding and a quaint charm. I loved the old wooden beams and unique decor, which made it feel inviting. Just a heads up, the noise from seagulls in the morning was a bit much, but they provided earplugs for that. It was a snug fit, not the biggest space, but it had character, and I enjoyed resting there after exploring.

    During my recent stay at Ship Inn, I was impressed by the quality of service offered by the attentive staff. The room was a cozy Double Room with charming decor that created a welcoming atmosphere. The highlight was the breakfast, featuring locally sourced ingredients and expertly cooked options, particularly the delicious crab sandwich that truly stood out.

    Some bathroom amenities were outdated.

    Historic charm with fab food

    We stayed for 5 nights and just loved it! The food was outstanding, and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. Our room had this lovely old-school vibe, and it was super clean. Only thing, the gulls make a ruckus in the mornings, so bring earplugs for some peace! Great spot to explore the area too.

    Cozy and convenient stay

    Just spent 2 nights here with my partner. The room was comfy and the staff were super welcoming. Breakfast was delish! Major plus is being close to the harbor and tons of bars and restaurants. Only bummer was the noise from outside—woke up early to sound of bins being emptied. Wifi only works in the pub too.

    The pub boasts a delightful atmosphere with traditional decor and friendly service, making it a cozy spot to unwind. I particularly enjoyed the local seafood dishes, especially the crab, which was simply delicious. The location is perfect for exploring nearby attractions, but it would be great if the breakfast options were more varied. a lovely stay!

    The room was carpeted and had a flat-screen TV, private bathroom with shower, hairdryer, and free toiletries. Linen and towels were provided, along with heating and hand sanitiser. The staff was super nice and ready to help, and breakfast had locally sourced options. Good coffee and a cozy vibe made it even better.
