Stayed at this B&B for a long weekend and had a great stay. The bar staff checked me in and were friendly and efficient. Room was nicely decorated and really comfortable. Good views. Was pleasantly suprised that the food was better than I'd expected for a pub/B&B - breakfast in particular. All in all, great little B&B. Wouldn't hesitate to... More

We stayed here at the beginning of April.The owner was not there to greet us, the bloke who met us was ok, showed us to the room. It was not very big, but a great view of the harbour. Bathroom was large and clean. Room definately needs modernising and looks very tired, badly cracked walls but its an old building.... More

I am really sorry I was unable to greet this guest, unfortunately it is impossible to be available all of the time, however when guests let us know when they expect to arrive, I make every effort to greet them. I also make a point of being in the bar every evening when guests come down to say hello, check... More

I booked this stay by e-mail but was also contacted by phone to confirm the booking which I thought was a nice touch. On arrival we were greeted by one of the staff who was very friendly, welcoming and polite, shown to our room and the features explained. The room was small but cosy if a little cramped but then...

A nice little pub/B&B with river views and short walk to the town centre. A bit disappointing to find the pub closed when we arrived at 2.30pm and we had to ring for someone to come and check us in. The pub didn't open to the public till approx 4pm, but there was no mention of this on our booking.... More

We did have the best room: first floor at the front overlooking the river and the Naval College. Magical old building on corner next to the ancient "mud" boat harbour filled in by the Yanks in preparation for the Normandy landing. So it's now a park with accessible tennis courts, kiosk and playground. Host a real host in the 19th... More

We have just returned from a long weekend in Dartmouth over New Year. The Ship was the right place to be. Great service & lovely staff. Great food ... Breakfast and evening meal. Dont be decieved by the bar on the way in. As it fills up it takes on the feel of a real local and prices are reasonable.... More

Fairly basic, but a nice room with a great view. Huge breakfast with everything you could possibly want with stacks of toast. Food is all locally sourced (except the Heinz baked beans). Good location and plenty of pubs to walk to. Saw a dolphin in the river too ! More

The pub is really welcoming, the room was clean and very comfortable.Jim and his family/ team are lovely and can't do enough for their guests. Breakfast is substantial - great local food. The pub does food in the evening - this is ok but nothing special. We would recommend a visit. More

A building with a lot of history, nicely renovated with nice rooms and small bar and good breakfast. Nothing too fancy but not bad at all More
