Stay at a historic beachside inn in Mundesley
The Ship Inn is a traditional coastal inn overlooking Mundesley Beach, on the Norfolk Coast. Dating back around 300 years, the historic pub occupies a prominent position above the sandy shoreline, with panoramic views across the North Sea. Today, it combines its longstanding seaside character with contemporary interiors, restaurant dining and boutique guest accommodation, making it an inviting place to stay in Mundesley.
The inn offers seven individually designed en-suite bedrooms, ranging from cosy doubles to spacious sea-view rooms, with coastal-inspired furnishings and modern comforts. Guests can enjoy breakfast and seasonal dishes in the restaurant, which serves traditional pub favourites using ingredients from local suppliers. The large beachside garden provides outdoor seating overlooking the sea, while The Catch offers fish and chips to take away. Dog-friendly bedrooms and on-site parking are also available. Breakfast inclusion depends on the booking rate.
From the inn, visitors can reach Mundesley Beach and explore the surrounding coastline on foot. The Norfolk Coast Path passes through the village, offering walks west towards Overstrand and Cromer, or south-east towards Bacton and Walcott. The wide sandy beach, coastal cliffs and open sea views provide opportunities for shorter seaside walks as well as longer journeys along the Norfolk coast.
The village of Mundesley has independent shops, cafés and a traditional seaside atmosphere, while nearby Cromer offers further attractions, including Cromer Beach and Cromer Pier. The surrounding countryside and coastal villages provide plenty to explore within the Norfolk Coast National Landscape. With its beachfront position, restaurant and comfortable guest rooms, The Ship Inn makes an appealing base for a relaxing seaside break or a walking holiday along the North Norfolk coast.
