The Ship Inn

Accommodation is in 11 guest rooms above the pub, which all feature comfortable beds, flatscreen televisions with SKY channels and tea and coffee making facilities that include a Nespresso coffee machine but there is no kettle in the room (so you can make a somewhat decent coffee but not an acceptable cup of tea). All rooms have en suite bathrooms with either a bath or shower. The rooms are clean and well maintained with slightly quirky decor. Four of the rooms are dog-friendly as is the pub downstairs.

Accommodation prices are higher on Fridays and Saturdays.

The pub downstairs has a chic yet relaxing and welcoming atmosphere and it boasts a higher standard of food than your average pub (although portion sizes are relatively small). Inside is spacious with big comfortable leather sofas and outside there are picnic tables that are a lovely spot to sit with a drink on a sunny day. The pub serves local organic cider and a selection of real ales with a simple menu comprised of dishes made with locally sourced seasonal produce. However, the food and drinks are on the expensive side for a small-town pub.
