We have just spent 3 nights at The Ship and have booked to return in both June and July - what better recommendation? Both this stay and the one in June have a business focus and The Ship was a haven to which we returned gratefully in the evening, showered off the cares of the day and sat down at... More

We had been invited to the evening of a wedding in the area and had The Ship in Parkgate recommended to us. We looked on their website and decided to book, especially when we realised the wedding party venue was literally around the corner.

In the north-west to visit my mother on t'other side of the Mersey, we were treated to a high level of hospitality by the staff who, though fraught with an exuberant Saturday evening clientele, catered to our modest needs in a friendly, professional manner.

Was very impressed with the bar as it has almost everything you can think of... More

To manage expectations, I should make it clear that this is not a flashy 4 or 5 star hotel with spas, saunas and all the bells and whistles but we really enjoyed... More

Visited with friends on Friday evening for dinner. Starters excellent especially the ribs. Although 3 scallops for six quid is a little mean. Mains where decidedly ok. Fish and chips came with very soggy tasteless greasy fish and the pork chop I had was very fatty with hardly any meat. Our friends had hake which looked good. Drinks service was... More

Popped in for a last minute lunch yesterday and we were welcomed by very friendly staff, the food was great and it had d really nice and bright atmosphere, with a view over to Wales across the estuary.

Needing to stay in the area we chose Parkgate for the gorgeous views over the marsh. The Ship is a good place to stay, good value with comfortable rooms, excellent staff and service and good food. If you want a room in the old part of the building, make sure you ask when you book. There is a wing of... More
