Had an incredible stay here! The breakfast was amazing with a full plate of food, and I loved the steak and ale pie—definitely the highlight of my trip! The room was comfortable and nicely maintained, making it hard to leave.

Cozy room, but I missed having a shelf in the bathroom.

Delicious breakfast with fresh juice. Wi-Fi was spotty at times.

Cozy coastal getaway

We stayed for 2 nights and were really impressed! The place is super cozy, with nice decor and new carpets. The breakfast was yummy, and the outdoor seating by the sea was a treat. The staff were friendly, but the check-in process was a bit slow. a lovely experience!

The locals' warm welcome made me feel at home, and the impressive homemade Thai curry was a delightful surprise during my stay.

The room featured modern refurbishments, creating a fresh environment for a relaxing stay. A hearty breakfast by Gwen kicks off the day, adding a personal touch to the dining experience.

En suite bathrooms felt a bit cramped, and the shower lacked sufficient water pressure, which could be a dealbreaker for some. Sleeping arrangements with two single beds pushed together might not suit everyone as a genuine double. noise from neighboring dogs and seagulls can disrupt peaceful mornings, so early risers may find it bothersome.

Just a nice choice for a weekend excursion in Bardsea with fantastic value for money. Loved the warm atmosphere from the log burner while enjoying a tasty meal. Park carefully on arrival, as the stones can be tricky.

Fantastic Family Getaway!

We had a lovely two-night stay, enjoying the comfortably arranged rooms and the delicious meals. The highlight was the full English breakfast, tailored to our preferences, especially the eggy bread! Be sure to try the steak pie during dinner. Perfect for family gatherings.

great stay but could improve service consistency

The room was spotlessly clean, which made our stay very relaxing. We particularly enjoyed the beautiful garden view and the peaceful surroundings, perfect for evening walks.

One staff member seemed less attentive compared to others.

the ship inn is such a gem! we loved how cozy our double room was, and the bed was super comfy. the location is perfect—just a 5-minute stroll to the estuary, away from the hustle and bustle. Dave really stood out with his friendly hospitality. he made us feel right at home.

totally recommend

a warm, welcoming local pub experience with home cooked food and a friendly atmosphere

Fantastic home cooked food, friendly locals.

Absolutely loved the warm hospitality, especially from Katie and Gwen! The breakfasts were just divine and made with care. Only downside was a bit of a weak phone signal. Can’t wait to return! 😊

Great staff and food. no pets allowed was a bummer. Enjoyed the quiet stay.

perfect base for exploring stunning landmarks and parks

I enjoyed a great breakfast choice in the morning and a wonderful, home-cooked meal at night during my stay, making it easy to relax and refuel after a day of walking around the beautiful nearby parks like Sea Wood and exploring historical sites like Swarthmoor Hall, which is just about 3 km away.

Just an ideal choice for a budget stay in Bardsea with reasonable value. The food was amazing, especially the roast on Sunday. Try the taco night. it's delicious and affordable.
