"Lovely stay / staff were amazing "

"The property was comfortable and in a good location "

"Poor Internet"

"Calm, polite, friendly"

"Location in authentic English (Essex) countryside. "

"Arrived at 2.10pm (50 minutes early) and despite the room being ready I was advised I couldn’t check in until 3pm unless I paid £15. For 50 minutes that’s ridiculous. Bed was great but room even with window closed was very noisy. Fan in the shower is poor. Around the tv was exceptionally dusty and the fan provider was filthy, we had to scrub it clean. The kettle was full of water and limescale."

"I had a really pleasant stay at The Ship. The room was compact but spotless and well-organised, with a comfy single bed, en-suite bathroom, TV, and a side cabinet stocked with tea, coffee, and biscuits—such a thoughtful touch. It had been a long time since I’d slept in a single bed, but it was surprisingly comfortable and perfect for a good night’s rest. I’d definitely stay again and would recommend it to other travellers looking for a clean, cosy spot with all the essentials. "

"Absolutely beautiful room, decor and furnishing was lovely, bathroom huge, great shower, so much character in the room ans indeed the whole place. "

"My stay here was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. The host went above and beyond in every way. Communication was excellent—friendly, fast, and straightforward. Before I even arrived, they sent over an invaluable welcome manual that covered everything from how to access the property to how to use the appliances and get connected to the Wi-Fi, which made settling in super easy. On the day of my arrival, my car broke down, and I was delayed. The host was incredibly kind and understanding, didn’t rush me at all, and later checked in to make sure I was okay and had arrived safely. That level of care really meant a lot. The apartment itself was spotless, exactly as described, and very comfortable. I also appreciated the heads-up about parking. She let me know street parking was available at a fixed day rate price and helped arrange the permit ahead of arrival, which saved me a lot of money and hassle. When I told the host about the car issues, she asked for the new plate number and swapped the car details at no extra cost. Honestly, it was one of the most stress-free and well-managed short stays I’ve had. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again or recommend it to others!"
