"Super location, right on the shoreline."
"The views across the bay are unbelievable!!"
Cons:
"Unfortunately what a very unpleasant old chap on the gate, myself and partner where turned away so rudely because of the vehicle we drive."
"Parking can be a bit of an issue peak season and bank holidays but well worth the waiting for a space."
"FYI for motorhomers/camper vanners it is not physically possible to now enter & park in the ship car park."
"Worth bearing in mind that the car park IS NOT camper van friendly."
"Horrible lady, we pulled up outside to walk the dog and get coffee... lady was very rude and intimidating told me to move and we wasn't welcome."
"Dirty awnings, poor cramped outdoor seating; hard to find and dishevelled appearance."
"We wasn’t allowed to park at the ship in because they don’t allow for large wheel chair accessible vehicles to park on their car park."
Food Quality
Pros:
"For mains we had the beef chilli and cheese on nacho's, hubby had the large fish and chips, again all very nice."

"Food at our visit was very good, the Chowder was fantastic and a really generous portion."
"Every meal was cooked to perfection with a perfect balance, and most of it was cheaper than anywhere else we've been."
Cons:
"The mediocre food would have been ok, but they haven't changed their frying oil for a number of weeks /months/years who knows?"
"The Sunday roasts had to be the worst we have ever eaten, the chicken was like sawdust, and the beef was unrecognisable."
"The turkey breast was prepacked turkey roll."
"Overpriced, poorly cooked, and cold food served by miserable staff."
"Chef couldn’t decide if they were making a curry or a chilli and very watery, uncooked veg and requiring a lot of salt to flavour it."
"Even the Neptune fish salads were appalling, smelly, slimey smoked salmon, tinned mackerel, just awful."
"The food served at the ship inn is just terrible, it is literally weather spoon food at best!"

"Overpriced... compared to other local establishments... Pint of Timothy Taylor Landlord £5.25. Tiny bowl of chips £4.95"
"Sort of dog 'friendly' shoved in a windowless room which felt a bit unwelcoming."
"The chips and fried chicken in the wrap were overwhelmed by the flavour and aroma of old cooking oil."
"The toilets are located rather awkwardly up some steep stairs at the far end of the pub, and had no soap in the dispensers."
"Some of the tables and chairs were dangerous, they were falling apart."
"The pub is very old which could be charming but it’s smelly from the toilets and dirty."
"Inside the pub looks like it hasn't been updated since the 1970's."
