A stunning property and location, we were very lucky to find the Ship cottage and would love to stay again. Reedham is lovely and the Ship pub became our second cottage. If you can get to visit the Cottage , you will be charmed and love it immediately. 10/10

Lovely riverside location.
Lovely riverside location. Two pubs and a cafe within a short strolling distance. Beautifully furnished, well equipped kitchen. Lovely welcome goody basket! Lots of books! Only mild issues with the very creaky main bed and lack of anywhere in the shower cubicle to put gel/soap etc.Overall - highly recommended !
