I can highly recommend The Shippon as a comfortable, restorative, refreshing place to stay. It is well equipped, cosy and quiet. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The shippon is well located for exploring both the north and south coast, the surrounding area is beautiful. I stayed with my son. A highlight was cycling the Camel trail, which is close bRead morey.

We love travelling to Cornwall and found the Shippon well located for exploring the North Coast. We particularly enjoyed visiting the fishing harbours and walking on the moors. Everything needed for an enjoyable stay is found in the Shippon. We look forward to returning in 2024.
