Excellent food

Really enjoyed our stay, staff very good, Breakfast very good, the full breakfast was too much for us. Night time meal very nice. Room size and en suite excellent we had the superior room, only downside was the noise from guests in the room above. We didnt know you couldn't park your car in the pub car park unless you have a disabled badge.

Fabulous views over the harbour. Bit strange that the bungalow is in the beer garden but it wasn’t noisy and it was quite handy! Breakfast was fabulous with plenty of choice.

One night stay on our way too Edinburgh

We had a an excellent one night stay. We ate in the restaurant in the evening. My husband’s daughter has a severe mustard and nut allergy and the staff were excellent in ensuring she was aware of the dishes that contained these ingredients. The meal in the evening was excellent as was the breakfast. All the staff we came into contact with in the bar, restaurant and reception were friendly and efficient. We would all definitely stay at The Olde Ship Inn again.

Great find

Fabulous pub and accommodation. We arrived too late by 30 mins. Breakfast was lovely. Parking was at a large car park across the road and free between 6pm and 8am. We paid for 8-11am the next day and was £6.70. Great pub and staff were lovely

Great place to stay with loads of character

Great place to stay, with lots of character, especially maritime related. Staff were amazing, very friendly and welcoming. We had an issue with our bathroom and the staff attended to our needs immediately. Fabulous food, the standard and quality was high end at affordable prices. Would definitely visit Seahouses again, and stay at The Olde Ship Inn. Would recommend to others.
