Lovely stay. Friendly staff. Perfect location to explore Mevagissey. We enjoyed the pub, the food, and hearing the gulls outside the window. Felt like travelers from an adventure story staying at the Ship Inn.

Great old Cornish inn in the heart of the village, just a few yards from the harbour. The food was excellent, the staff were very friendly and helpful, and the room was clean and comfortable. We will definitely be back.

The Ship Inn is a delightful place to stay. Friendly, welcoming and full of character - just like Dianne! Who is lovely and cooks a delicious "Cornish Breakfast". Thank you for a great stay.

Value for money stay
Have stayed at the Ship a few times over the years so knew what to expect. Nothing has changed it’s an old building. Staff were excellent meal in the evening and breakfast next day were both good. Very central location

Cosy Authentic Pub with Rooms - Great Food!
The Ship is a really interesting and authentic place to stay and provides excellent food, drink and service. The staff were really friendly and helpful, despite having struggled to keep the pub open as a result of recent spring tide flooding of the bar. The room was homely and comfortable, but a little maintenance would be good

I stayed on the evening at the start of festival week. It was loud as to be expected and it was great to be in the thick of the activities. Location is excellent and not far from the car park. Room was clean, although a little tired.
Kelly, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Arrived at The Ship, had to fight our way in through the crowded pub. Free public parking advertised, but there is none had to pay for parking about 5 minutes walk away. It was very noisy, especially in the early morning, dustmen, bottle collecting and deliveries. Returned to pub first evening after a walk with a sign in the doorway saying “full, come back later” so went elsewhere to eat.
Bernardine, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Food and service was good. Room to small could not move freely around room. Could do with a good clean and a lick of paint. Noise early in the morning from deliverys but to be expected in small villages.
