Old Ship Cottage

Discover this characterful cottage, one of four on-site, offering a wonderful blend of old-world charm and modern-day comfort in the heart of the Shropshire countryside. Ideal for a group gathering accompanied by up to three furry friends, enjoy lovingly preserved original features, a roaring wood burner and a private garden for al fresco dining at this inviting home away from home.

Inside, unwind in the lounge where exposed wooden beams fly overhead and the warming wood burner attracts the hounds. The well-equipped kitchen boasts a breakfast bar seating area and a separate dining table, ensuring sociable mealtimes, whatever the occasion. A convenient cloakroom completes the ground floor. Upstairs, the cottage features four bedrooms, a double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a twin bedroom with an en-suite wet room on the first floor. The second floor offers one double bedroom and one twin bedroom, both sharing a wet room. Step outside to the safely enclosed garden area with seating and a BBQ, providing a perfect spot to soak in the serene setting while Rover and company explore their new surroundings.

Situated along the scenic banks of the River Severn, enjoy doorstep access to riverside walks and tail-wagging adventures. There’s also an 18th-century country inn next door, offering year-round hospitality with lunches, evening meals and afternoon cream teas. The renowned River Severn beat (0.5 miles) is a haven for barbel fishing enthusiasts, with fishing tickets available on-site for a day spent by the water with Rover by your side. Alternatively, spend the day exploring the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with plenty to keep curious canines entertained along the way.
