鄧尼奇船舶旅館(The Ship at Dunwich)

A super lunch at this characterful, a**ospheric pub. Lots of choice of where to sit, including unspoilt traditional pub rooms, pretty courtyard and secluded pub garden. The six of us thoroughly enjoyed the fresh pub food, which brought something new to some pub classics, including great ploughman's with smoked chicken, fresh and tasty crab and traditional fish and chips. The beer was good too! Will certainly eat here again when in Suffolk!

Friend and I booked a table several days ahead, we entered the pub to be told all tables in main pub full and we were shown to an empty side dining room. No a**osphere at all We ordered small fish and chips and a gin and tonic each. We also requested a glass of water each The food was delicious, so very happy with that, drinks good too. Though we never did get the water and couldn't get anyone's attention to ask for it I used the toilet, and the toilet seat wasn't fixed on properly We left and were given a bill for £47! It's an expensive area I know, but I've not paid that much in London I have emailed querying whether that might have been an error Staff polite, kind and doing their best, food and general service good, but overall a little disappointing

funny how you get the feeling sometimes not all appears sincere but you give second sight a chance and think may be a review you wrote a while back may of been in haste I am not so sure but we did get back in touch with the Ship , not for a hand out but a polite conversation re my wifes Birthday night out . sadly I think my initial thoughts were spot on and i got no response after calling the Manager and speaking with the deputy Manager who assured me he would call me back . we are not tourist we live in Bun*** and also appreciate nice places nice a**osphere and good food . do i regret the drive down to Dunwich " NO did we have a nice night out ! Not realy would we visit again possibly as i imagine as busy as this place can look im sure on a quiter day we may have had a better experience

Enjoyed our stay very much. The hotel was being redecorated during our trip although this only had a small impact on our stay; a skip was placed in a parking space in the carpark, which is already very small. The breakfast was very enjoyable with lots of choice and it made such a change for the breakfast to be served at the table and not a buffet, very much appreciated . The lady servicing on both days was very friendly, professional and caring . She couldn’t have been more helpful. Our fish and chips for dinner were well cooked and presented beautifully. We look forward to returning .

Excellent stay. We stayed for 2 nights on Easter weekend at a very busy time. Room was clean, warm, cosy. Beer was cold, fresh, food was excellent. Service was fantastic. All staff very helpful. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants a weekend beside the seaside

Food and service excellent - check out the menu before you go as it’s very nice but choice is limited. Our room was basic and tired. Sink cracked, glass shelf chipped and black inside shower. Carpet grubby. I was so excited to stay at the ship but accommodation was a let down.

Sadly, we didn’t enjoy our stay. We booked a family room - Greyfriars which is classed a “best room” however the room was very average. Unfortunately, the website description, photos and staff on the booking line failed to mention that the room was an accessible room. The bright green emergency exit light on the ceiling which was on all night and lit up the room meant it was hard to sleep. The 3 safety cords around the bathroom and room were not what we were expecting. On arrival, we were surprised that our room opened on to the car park - again not pictured or mentioned. Sadly, the room although spacious and clean, is very tired and in need of some tlc. The only picture of the bathroom is of a roll top bath which is in the bathroom but the bathroom itself is so bare and dark that it’s not somewhere you want to sit and relax. The food in the pub was good but not as good as in previous years. Breakfast was average. If you do eat here, make sure you asked to be seated in the main pub area as the conservatory is cold and tired and not as nice. Sadly we won’t be returning which is a shame as it has the potential to be a lovely place given its location next to Dunwich beach.

We returned! We decided to go for a quick get away to Norfolk and we remembered the lovely food last time at The Ship and we decided to return, only we stayed there this time. We had a lovely, albeit small room (you had to bend over to go through the door), and the food was excellent for breakfast and dinner. It's a lovely seaside pub and we can't wait to return many times in the future!

We have just spent an enjoyable weekend at the Ship Inn, Our room was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The staff are very helpful and friendly We also ate in the restaurant on the two evenings The food was plentiful and well presented The wine list is well thought out and the cellar well kept. My only critism is the food menu is a bit limited Some daily "specials" would greatly improve the range and choice
