The Ship Inn

Beautiful and friendly wee hotel with great food. The room cleaning service could have been better as previous residents shorts were found in the bed. This was a very minor issue on an otherwise great trip. Beer garden is also a fantastic facility.

The accommodation felt recently refreshed - modern and unfussy. The restaurant offered a broad range of locally sourced and well cooked produce - with Specials on the menu each evening. The heart of the Ship Inn is the staff team - helpful, friendly and always ready with a smile. We are all looking forward to a return visit soon!

This was an amazing find. Excellent location. A bus stop to the city right outside. The girl that checked us in was lovely. Friendly, helpful and fun. The Bistro at the back of the pub was superb. The food was excellent. We stayed for 3 nights and the room was lovely. Well appointed. The bathroom was superb. The power shower was wonderful after a days sightseeing. There was a communal area which was useful and a nice touch. The complimentary items were an added extra. We will definitely stay again and will be recommending the Ship.

Our stay at The Ship Inn was excellent in every way. The interior décor was clean and fresh, the bedrooms very comfortable with spotless shower rooms, the restaurant very good with a menu providing variety, including vegetarian options and the staff were without exception friendly, helpful and accommodating. We would certainly recommend this establishment.

Two night stay with my wife. Excellent staff, Excellent room, Powerful shower, amazing food. Ideal place to stay to tour the surrounding area, with Gatehouse of Fleet a nice little place to visit. Had a room overlookinh the beer garden with the river at the bottom of it, great location. Would certainly stay again

Excellent, comfortable and well furnished accommodation in a pleasant small town; Interesting menus and top class food with well kept wines; (the local bottled ales were a bonus for lovers of good, local beers but a shame they were not advertised on an otherwise standard beer list. Friendly and efficient staff added to the warm and welcoming surroundings; good to see that well behaved dogs were allowed. Would love to return.

From the moment I arrived, the staff were so helpful. The storage facility for my bicycle was excellent. The room was great with a large bath - handy after a long day in the saddle. Breakfast was great with lovely staff in particular a young student with whom I had a long chat about her travels. Cannot fault my stay and fully intend returning again.

Firstly, let me be quite clear, I thought The Ship Inn offered very good value for money, with excellent attentive staff, a great breakfast and a very nice vibe in the restaurant in the evening. Our rooms were modern, well appointed, (with a good bed and nice bedding), and initially appeared spotless, although a couple of cobwebs on the ceiling and some sort of 'residue' on the inside of one of the windows spoiled the first impression a little. We enjoyed our meal in No.1 Fleet Street, but were a bit disappointed with the very small (approx. 6 x 3 inch) haddock portion when compared to what we had initially observed being served to other customers. (In fairness, we did not mention this at the time as after being stuck on the M6 for several hours we were just glad to sit down to a meal and relax, but it really was a small portion). The chips seemed to be some sort of soft hybrid version, but in general the meals were very good, in particular the Smoked Salmon and Prawn starter. The Ship Inn offers a great deal at a very competitive price point, and with the attentive and friendly staff, it is a good choice if you are planning to be in the area.
