The Ship is one of the oldest buildings in Fowey and was built in 1570 by John Rashleigh. It retains much of its original character including oak beams in the bar, a stained glass window in the dining room. The principal bedroom still has the original 16th Century oak panelling. The Ship hosts quiz nights every other Wednesday. The Ship is a traditional Inn with a warm atmosphere. It offers comfortable accomodation, good food, real ales and a very warm welcome. Please note that all our bedrooms are non-smoking.
We look forward to welcoming you. Andrew Kent.
