2 TC's - 73 yo & 83 brother & sister on 6weeks car tour of UK & Ireland couldn't have had a better start for their holiday of a lifetime
Cheryl & Clive could not have been more welcoming or hospitable,
Unique experience to stay in a house that was built over 150 years before our country waqs settled by white man
Make sure you make time to stroll around Wingham - the perfect centre for touring the beautiful Kent area.
Our hosts' recommendation to visit Chilham provided a real highlight.

Run by Clive and Cheryl Barker, The Old Ship was my beginning and end of a month long trip in the UK. Not only were Clive and Cheryl wonderful to deal with as Innkeepers, they could not have been more helpful in assisting me with travel arrangements and suggestions. They saved me time and money on my return to London with their advise. The Inn itself is spotless and Cheryl's breakfasts are worth the trip alone.
