    excellent breakfast
    great sea view
    friendly staff
    small sink
    loud noise

    we had a fantastic time at the old ship hotel! the breakfast was amazin, one of the best we’ve had in ages and def saved us for lunch. the view from our double room was right on the sea front n it was really nice to wake up to that. the staff were super friendly, which made our stay even better. overall, great value for the money!

    the sink in the bathroom was too small, and the karaoke from next door was really loud on the weekend.

    cozy bed
    beautiful sea view
    relaxing terrace
    confusion over breakfast

    We loved our stay here, especially the cozy bed and the beautiful sea view from our deluxe room. There’s a lovely lounge area for relaxing and a fantastic terrace to soak up the sun. The only hitch was some confusion over breakfast options, but it didn’t spoil our time at all! 😊

    The building shows signs of wear, and the bathroom space is cramped, making it tricky to maneuver around the tiny sink. No hairdryer in the room made morning routines a bit inconvenient, and while the parking situation could be challenging, I didn't face issues myself. Limited evening dining options made finding food a chore, with no on-site meals available, and the odd restroom noise might bother some.

    sea view
    pub quiz

    The sea view from my room was amazing, and it was a joy to hear the waves crashing while I drifted off to sleep. The pub atmosphere was lively, and I loved joining the pub quiz with the friendly locals.

The breakfast was exceptional, offering a delicious full English that kept us satisfied for hours. Jackie and the team provided fantastic service, making us feel right at home.

    accessibility issue

    The Old Ship features a cozy atmosphere with charming decor. The rooms are well-appointed and easily accessible, making my stay comfortable as a senior woman. The staff were attentive, providing a welcoming ambiance throughout my visit.

    Could use better signage for room accessibility.
