Just 5 minutes' drive from the Channel Tunnel, The Ship Inn - Sandgate offers free parking, free Wi-Fi and a traditional pub restaurant. Located in Sandgate, the inn is a mile from Folkestone Harbor. Set in a Victorian cottage, the rooms all feature a private bathroom and tea and coffee facilities. All rooms have a TV, hairdryer and DVD player, and some have wonderful views across the English Channel. The cozy Ship Inn Restaurant serves a varied menu, featuring homemade specials and local produce. The bar offers a range of real ales and beverages. Delicious cooked breakfasts are served daily in the courtyard or on the terrace. With Dover Ferry Terminals just 15 minutes’ drive away, Ship Inn is only yards from Sandgate’s sandy beach.
