The Blue Ship

Liked: Love this place, great camping field, next to an amazing historic country pub, no actual bar, just a serving hatch for Badger Ales and I think one Lager,other drinks available, food was really good, staff very friendly and locals didn’t bite, definitely a great Saturday night stop off, well worth the trip 👌

Disliked: Nothing here to dislike, just as a note there is no hook up or showers, but that didn’t bother me, there is a nice new toilet block

Liked: Lovely spot, great pub and friendly, fun atmosphere. Great for our son and perfect for dog owners/dog lovers. Clean and quiet.

Disliked: Only downside is lack of shower facilities so wouldn't really stay longer than one night (as we did). But for one night, a great choice.

Liked: The Blue Ship Inn is quite a find hidden in the country side, we ate good food we drank good wine, watched bats overhead as day turned to night. We would highly recommend for those wanting convenience of camping next to a pub run by a family who are brilliant!

Liked: Peaceful, and taking our rubbish home, we thought this a really good idea to make campers think about the amount of rubbish used.

Disliked: It was bank holiday weekend and the ladies half of the unisex toilets didn't have toilet paper or a toilet brush. Very difficult to keep the toilets clean. Wasn't happy about paying £4.50 for a lime and soda. Not having a dedicated pitch as when we went out we weren't able to return to the same spot . No access to public transport and no Wifi

Liked: A wonderful weekend stay. The site was peaceful with clean toilet block. The pub was fantastic, oldy worldly with very friendly staff. Sophies mum was brilliant, a good laugh and made us feel very welcome. And YES, the brie wedges were amazing. We will be back!

Liked: The camping field is lovely, and the space in the middle is perfect for playing games. The toilets are always in pristine condition, and the close proximity of the pub is great. The hosts are always super friendly and come round to make sure everything is OK, , even now they have their gorgeous new addition to their family. And they make a fuss of our dog, so he loves coming too, not that we took him this time (1 year old twins was enough ) There are also so many lovely walks on the doorstep, we find it the perfect getaway. It's definitely one of our favourite places to camp.

From the manager: Thank you for visiting and for taking the time to write a review. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay over all and hope to welcome you again soon. **A side note re bins for anyone reading this, we clearly state in our listing on Pitch Up and in our pre arrival info that is emailed to all guests, that we don't provide rubbish disposal and that all rubbish must be taken home. We also clearly explain the reason for this in terms of the ever increasing cost of commercial waste disposal and that this would result in us having to increase our pitch rates, we choose to keep pitch rates lower and affordable for everyone and ask people to take their rubbish home with them on departure. We could not make this clearer and this is signposted in the campsite as well as other signs you mention which are all driven by health and safety to ensure the well being and safety of our guests - mainly signs with regard to firepit safety (which are also an insurance requirement) and signs directing guests upon arrival, all of which are necessary to ensure the campsite runs smoothly, safely and that the central area and gateways are kept clear. We can only apologise if guests find safety and informative signs offensive in some way. Best Wishes Sophie.
