Hotel, bar en buitenterras zagen er op begane grond gezellig en leuk uit. Buitenterras mag wel een keer aangeveegd worden. Eten vonden wij gemiddeld.

Excellent Inn. I stayed on my way over to Calais. I had the Single room. Very need and tidy. Recently updated room I’d say. Excellent bed and neat bathroom. I really liked the old charm of the building, nice little doors to the rooms. Very nice bar downstairs with lots of nice places to sit inside and outside. Pleasant atmosphere all round. The breakfast is fantastic and likewise the staff are wonderful.

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.

A traditional Hotel which is being updated and upgraded. Our bedroom and bathroom are new and modern, and the quality throughout the hotel is of a high standard. The owners and their staff were extremely friendly, likeable and accommodating; food[including a comprehensive breakfast] & menu very decent; free parking also a plus. Highly recommended.
