This is an unusual property, downstairs is like being inside a ship! Guests bedrooms are upstairs via narrow stairs (no lift). My room was tastefully decorated and the bed was very comfortable. I really like the thought that had gone into details such as special tea bags, a bag of things you might need, water bottle next to bed. The en suite was fine although there was a slight fluctuation to water in the shower. Parking no issue. The cooked to order Breakfast was nicely presented and hot. Limited choices in the breakfast 'help yourself ' buffet and not sure about the bread. The croissants were not fresh ones sadly. The main negative for me was the sound of traffic from the busy road less than 3 metres from front of the building. The traffic continued past 10pm both nights i stayed here and started up again by 6am. The windows were lovely sash style but not double glazed which would have helped.

Fantastic Stay

What a great character place to stay for a couple of nights. Beautifully refurbished rooms and quiet even though close to a road. The inclusive breakfast was excellent with cereal, bread/toast, a selection of jams and a choice of hot food brought to you fresh and of course unlimited tea/coffee. All for a similar price to Premier Inn (no competition)

A cracking little room with everything you'd need. Great shower area, fab bed, good parking, Booked a meal and that was fab, too. Lovely friendly staff, absolute 5 star. Just a smidgeon off 5 stars, as the room was really hot. The thoughtfully supplied fan helped, but a small thing in a lovely stay. Well done all.

The place is unique in my opinion because of a personal touch, attention to details and amazing people working there. I stayed twice in The Spice Ship with my partner, while we're working in the area. There is also a restaurant with very good food. I don't want to stay anywhere else now.
