Fantastic all round pub Great staff with Brodie being very attentive and friendly Rooms are pleasant and very clean. Food was excellent especially sea bass meal and eggs Benedict for breakfast! Only one gripe - the slight buzz from the external boiler was a little annoying in the first rooms

We really enjoyed our first visit to the Ferry Boat Inn. The staff were attentive and welcoming, the room was comfortable, and the food was interesting and well prepared - generous portions too! A very nice, relaxed atmosphere, plenty of parking space and space to sit both inside and out, and lovely surroundings close to the estuary.

beautiful setting , very comfortable bed, friendly staff. we were slightly disappointed by the lack of local produce on the menu , it would have been lovely to have some of the local wines , and lack of choice at breakfast , some fruit/ yogurt would have been nice, but otherwise a lovely stay

Visited here last night with family and had a lovely meal! Its a very pretty building inside and out, very welcoming. Staff were all super lovely too. The honey mustard sausage starter was my favourite of the evening. Very big portions as well. Everyone enjoyed their meal and said it would be nice to visit in the summer and sit outside. Will return

Went for a family meal, two starters were cold and dry. One main missed.. Mains rolls stale, fishfinger sandwich was cold.. Not much choice on menu and expensive for what it is.. Service and staff were fantastic and could not do any more.. Kitchen needs to up it's game in this day and age.. would not return..Which is a shame as lovely pub and in the summer could do a lot of business..

We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at The Ferry Boat Inn. The accommodation was immaculate, clean, and had lovely décor and furnishings. It was warm, had everything we needed and was truly amazing. The three course evening meal and the breakfast were both beautifully cooked and piping hot. Without exception, every single member of staff was polite, friendly and helpful. We would not hesitate to recommend The Ferry Boat Inn and we will definitely aim to stay there again in the near future.

Lovely stay at the Ferry Boat Inn. Rooms very comfortable and clean with an excellent breakfast included. Staff were super friendly and helpful too. Lovely location with river walks and sheep in field behind. Plenty of room for car parking. Would definitely stay again and recommend highly.
