GARDEN TERRACE

Immerse yourself in a relaxing oasis any time of the year. Exposed to an abundance wild greenery and surrounded by vibrant flowers, our rear garden is the perfect sun trap to enjoy small plates with cocktails. Or watch the world pass by on our front seating for a fleeting pint with friends. And when the weather turns to a chill our cosy firepit and warm blankets will have snuggled for plenty of drinks to enjoy well into the evening under the festoon lighting.

With plenty of tranquil spots to unwind and create memories, we will always provide the perfect tipple.

WALKERS RETREAT

With the un-touched Essex countryside on our doorstep, we are proud to have such a beautiful landscape as our neighbour. An obvious paradise for walkers, this wild landscape is full of adventure, with everything from short strolls through woodland to circular walks around Hanningfield reservoir, explore a walker’s paradise straight from our doorstep.

CELEBRATE IN STYLE

For them extra special occasions, you’ll feel whisked away with our alfresco dining space amongst the wilderness. With an abundance of space to laugh, drink and dine outside with all your guests you’ll be able to bask in the pleasure of an enjoyable evening as the sun sets.

Almost any occasion is possible here at The Ship. We're just at the end of the phone, so give us a call!
