We became custodians of our lovely old Inn just a year ago!
We are crafting our food and beverage offering, trying new things and continuing with traditional ones, bringing our passion for hospitality to it all.
A proper old country Inn, with comfortable rooms, delicious food and a traditional bar.
We are an independent family owned free house offering great hospitality, with real food and a real welcome.
Our team, led by Sarah and Nick, share a strong ethos from food production to service and work closely with the farmer, fisherman and artisan to deliver a great guest experience.
Enjoy the atmosphere of our flagstone old bar, our casual food offering, from breakfast to afternoon tea, perhaps on our terrace or in the garden. Or, indulge in the full food experience in one of our intimate dining rooms.
Relax and stay in one of our personally crafted en-suite bedrooms and explore the locality with its many gems.
We are on the A30 , which is itself an historic route from London to Cornwall dating back to around 1675.
The Ship Inn is excellently placed for a stop off and stop over to visit the many delights the area has to offer or just unwind in the English countryside.

Exceptional dinner in the restaurant and a tasty breakfast (breakfast included). Decent room and very good value. Staff were really attentive. Would recommend, especially for cyclists on the sustrans route. 🚴
Christmas meal with the family. The food was delicious and exceeded expectations for a good value set menu. Staff were friendly and helpful and the pub had a cosy atmosphere.
Nice little pub, but the waitress had a serious lack of allergen knowledge. Seemed to think that sourdough bread made with wheat flour was OK for a coeliac. I'd eat here again, but my mother has lost all confidence in the place and won't.
Popped in for an afternoon drink and now booked in the restaurant for this evenings festive banquet. Happy days. Great dining, wine selection and service. Totally recommend
This is a wonderful place to eat. There is a two course fixed price menu for just £15 plus the standard menu. We also tried the orange wine which was unusual and enjoyable. Great service and even better food.
