Absolutely loved exploring this island. It's a must see of you're in the area. It was a really great place to see. We loved every minute.
Excellent visit, warm sunny weather certainly helped! £6pp return ferry, good pub prices, nice and chilled out.
What an amazing quirky place… you have to go by boat to reach it.… the ferry runs regularly and there is free parking. The pub accommodations are really nice and very comfortable. In the evening we walked around the island and heard the seals and saw Blackpool lights in the distance. The menu is great and the staff were so helpful and nothing was any trouble. Recommended! Especially if you want a really peaceful and relaxing time.
Remarkable castle. Interesting shore line, pleasant views and sea air. Nice pub too.
Lovely. Peaceful beaches and nice historical attraction. Too bad the pub was closed due to covid
Stunning little remote island. Welcoming staff invite you into the only pub on the island - the ship inn. Roaring fires and lovely food at very reasonable prices.
A beautiful island, great pub, fantastic if basic camping. We stayed here for a single night on a weekend in August. It was quite busy, and the main camping areas closer to the pub were pretty full, but we managed to pitch up in the outer bailey of the castle and didn't hear a peep or see a light all night. Fellow campers were really respectful. The staff at the pub were incredibly friendly and helpful, giving us tips about where to pitch and letting us leave our things there safely as we walked around the island to decide where to set up camp. It's really cheap to camp too, I think we only spent £25 over the day/night on camping, drinks, and the ferry trip. The camping toilets are extremely basic, and I didn't brave the shower, but it's a little piece of paradise away from it all and I'd say you get more than what you pay for.
10 minute small boat ride from pier at Road Island gets you to the island. Impressive castle, but otherwise felt run-down, maybe because it was a wet and windy day.
Beautiful place to visit.enjoyed ferry ride and exploring island.
This small island of eleven hectares is accessible by short boat trip. On its south-east tip a fourteenth century castle originally built as a trade supervisory outpost and defensive bulwark against marauding Scots now stands in splendid ruin. Day visitors and extended stay campers have an opportunity to explore and appreciate the areas rich wildlife. The islands Ship Inn landlord is quaintly know as the "King of Piel". Sitting on a certain ancient chair traditionally "obliges" one to buy a round of drinks for patrons in attendance, thus honouring the generous purchaser with the title "Knight of Piel"! Obviously fun packed and eventful times to be had, especially if the weather is kind.
