The Merchants House is within walking distance of both ferry terminals (1/2 mile from P&O and 1 mile from Stena). We have a small and cosy bar, open from 6.30pm - 11pm, for our guests to enjoy. A range of breakfast options can be purchased every morning, for guests not leaving for early morning ferries.
