Very comfortable stay
I always stay at the Ship when visiting family. They've spruced up the place with new beds, paint, carpets, but not increased the proces. Always great food and very welcoming staff. Great value for money.

Lovely stay
Really lovely pub with a very nice room, there was a function on in the pub so the kitchen was shut which was a shame. Lovely breakfast, would highly recommend.
