The Ship Inn Dymchurch

General Information

Niko and Rachel have undertaken an extensive renovation of this antique smugglers haunt and now invite you to come and enjoy their outstanding cordiality. Russell Thorndike weaved The Ship Inn (his local) into his now great Dr Syn novels. The Ship Inn is alive with Dr Syn, smuggling and nautical related art and artifacts. We have one of the biggest (if not the largest) collections of Dr Syn related memorabilia in the world. The Ship brags 2 restaurants - Scarecrows, which serves conventional home-cooked fayre and the Fifth Quarter for pleasant dining, both utilising one of the best of local make and cooked to perfection by our talented team. At the brasserie, we have an option of 3 true ales, premium lagers, Belgian beers and a generous selection of attractive wines, we even have our own prestigious Scarecrow Ale brewed by The Nelson Brewery in The Historic Chatham Dockyard. Lodging is now to a high standard, with eight recently refurbished bedrooms - six en-suite and all with flat screen TVs, tea/coffee making amenities.
