Meet your HOSTS
We’re a small & diverse group of acclaimed inns with a focus on comforting interiors, convivial service, delicious, local, seasonal food and quaffable wines & ales, all in dreamy locations with wonderful views.
Owners, Graham & Rachel Bucknall are the heartbeat of our team – you’ll often find Rachel behind the bar, or reluctantly keeping score for the Ship Inn cricket team whilst Graham is our numbers man but also claims to be a competent cricketer….
Day to Day, the Ship’s crew is led by our General Manager, Fernando Pitaes and our Head Chef, Jason Mclelland, both of whom are passionate about great service and delicious food.
And… of course, we’d be nothing without our amazing crew, all of whom are remarkably committed to ensuring our guests have an amazing experience time and time again.
