Holly Lodge in Norwich, England

Holly Lodge sits directly next to the River Yare, offering guests private fishing access from the property's own quay. The outdoor area includes a picnic table, a barbecue, and a garden with an old oak tree, all of which are set on a fenced plot. A trolley and a wheelbarrow are provided to help move luggage across the 200-300 meter grass path from the parking area.

The two-bedroom house sleeps four guests and includes a fully equipped kitchen and a living area. A conservatory with windows facing the river serves as the most used room, according to guests. The bathroom has a large shower, and the bedrooms are furnished with comfortable beds.

Norwich City Football Club, Norwich Railway Station, and Norwich Cathedral are all 10 kilometers from the lodge. Norwich International Airport is 24 kilometers away. Two pubs-the Ferry Inn and another-are within walking distance, though the tidal broads can flood the path to the Ferry Inn.

Fishing from the property yields bream, roach, perch, and chub, as reported by a family staying seven nights. The owner Elaine responds quickly to questions and is described as helpful and friendly. Guests highlight the view from the conservatory and the peacefulness of the river setting.
