Nice place in a good location. Bathroom needs a bit of a tidy up and the mirror in the room was rather dirty. The real letdown was the breakfast.

The room was nicely decorated and clean, the bathroom was also spotless. The staff member who checked us in was pleasant and explained everything. We were at a local event so were later back, no issues with noise as mentioned by others, the pub closes at 11pm. Perfect for a stay in Burnham.

Our stay at the Ship Inn was lovely - the rooms are perfect, the bed super comfy and ear plugs are provided for any noise from the pub downstairs (which we did not find a problem at all). Breakfast is continental but very lovely and we had a really nice stay. Also ate at the pub and would definitely recommend - all staff lovely and food really really good (and nice cocktails too at a good price!)
