    early check-out

    I enjoyed a cozy stay in the Twin Room with Bath at the Ship. Comfy beds and clean facilities made my visit enjoyable, though I found the early check-out a bit inconvenient. The vibrant atmosphere in the pub below added to the experience, making it a fun place to unwind after a day of exploring.

    Couple’s weekend getaway

    We had a King room that was clean and modern, huge smart tv with complimentary tea, coffee and bottled water available. The pub downstairs was cozy and inviting, we checked in late so we missed food but the menu looked fantastic!

    It wasn’t exactly cheap but still acceptable for the quality we received.

    great atmosphere
    reasonable prices

    Had a great time with friends! We explored Warren Golf Club and enjoyed some fun at Leez Priory. The food was solid and reasonably priced, and the staff were super friendly. Just a heads up, it can get pretty lively, especially during big games, which made for a fun atmosphere.

    lovely room
    great facilities
    cramped space

    great room but needs more attention to details

    The room was beautifully designed with a really comfy bed and the bathroom had everything you might need for a short stay. The complimentary water and coffee offered a nice touch enhancing the experience as well as the availability of streaming services on the smart TV.

    The layout of the room felt a bit cramped at times which took away from the overall comfort.
