Overview
Description
Modern and spacious with fabulous reviews and lots of repeat bookings!
River Bay is nestled in a small marina just off the River Yare with private quay headed moorings for lodge guests use only. A good spot for fishing from the garden, relaxing, watching the boats pass the top of the marina to and from the river and spotting the wildlife activity.
This quiet and tranquil location is perfect to get into the quieter waters with your own boat, kayak or paddle board from our slipway. Bring your own boat and moor directly outside!
Boat and canoe* (in season) hire is available locally and we highly recommend exploring the Norfolk Broads from this idyllic location – pre booking with a local company is advised. *Discounts for canoe hire for our guests.

Perfect for the Broads
By Mike on 23-Oct-2023A clean, spacious, well equipped lodge in the ideal location for exploring the broads. Mooring our boat immediately outside the front door was wonderful . The Holiday Lodge Manager was extremely helpful and with a short walk to the pub providing meals and shops within a two minute drive, everything was perfect for us.
Beautiful Lodge
By Andrew on 09-Oct-2023When we arrived we were pleasantly surprised by the easy access onto the plot. Upon entering the property we found a large living space and kitchen and much bigger than it looks in the pictures. We booked a four night stay and wished we could have stayed longer. the accommodation was comfortable and we liked the decor and found plenty of outside space.
Wonderful stay beautiful location
By Sandra on 25-Sep-2023Had an amazing stay in River Bay Lodge everything was provided with thought and consideration for everyone to have an excellent staycation even down to our dog (welcome treats), welcome biscuits and a selection of tea bags coffee etc, the furnishings were lovely, the whole package was great the Manager Tina is very friendly, bubbly and kind thank you Tina for an amazing stay - we shall return and definitely recommend
Excellent base for local wildlife
By Nigel on 29-Aug-2023We had an excellent 2 weeks at River Bay using it as base to explore the local nature reserves and other wildlife attractions. These included many visitors to the marina including heron, Egyptian Geese, swans, terns to name but a few. The accommodation was spotless when we moved in and was well appointed. The wi-fi was excellent and allowed for good planning of the next days excursions. One very minor irritant, a tea pot would have been brilliant for those early morning brews but aside from that couldn''t really fault it. Would definitely consider staying there again if we decide to return to that area.
Wow just wow
By Michelle on 09-Jul-2023My husband and I along with our dog, spent a perfect few days at River Bay. The lodge is beautiful, spotlessly clean and has everything that you need. Tina is a very lovely lady and will be available if you should need her. Biscuits were left for us and a packet of treats for our dog. Ty says thank you very much for his treats and his lovely stay by the river. We definitely more than echo this. Thank you Tina so much, we couldn''t have asked for more. We also met the lovely gentleman who cuts the grass etc, he is also very nice. THANK YOU again, we will return.
