The Olde Ship Inn

Ye Olde Ship is ideally located in the heart of Seahouses. There is no parking (except for blue badge holders) at the pub but that is no problem as there is a large public car park within a few minutes walk. We paid £31.50 for 3 days parking as a block, and came and went as we pleased. The breakfast is comprehensive and the full English was ample and very generous. The general food menu is traditional pub fayre with other restaurant choices in Seahouses if you want something different. The varied choice of cask ales I also found particularly pleasant. There are 10 rooms across the first and second floor. It is a very old pub so the access is stairs only and the rooms are compact, but perfectly functional with all that we needed. Access to the jetty for the various boats that provide trips is only a short walk from Ye Olde Ship. There are boat trips for sunset cruises, to Holy Island and to Inner Farne. We did each of these cruises and saw fantastic bird life and sea life, as well as the islands fascinating history. We pre-booked 2 of the trips which was a wise choice as the weather was great and trips on the day sold out very quickly. We would certainly stay at Ye Olde Ship again.

Good service in a great location Great location with friendly and helpful staff Quality food with good choice at breakfast and dinner

Delightful room at the end of the first corridor, which had a fabulous view of the end of the harbour and Inner Farne. Although positioned over the bar this did not affect our sleep, though on noisier nights it might be a bit louder from below...The four poster could have been a gimmick, but the hanging was perfectly clean and the mattress comfortably firm. Oldstyle dark furniture perfectly in keeping with the style of the Inn. Bathroom spotless, towels fluffy, and it had a bath (also a shower), which personally I prefer. A pleasure to sit in the bay window with a cuppa and watch the world go by, after some time in the characterful and cosy bar
