2 Bed Lodge in Gillingham

About this property

A stay in a floating holiday pod on the Norfolk Broads promises a truly unique adventure, with the waterways on your doorstep. Sleeping up to four, the pod is ideal for couples, small families, or friends on an adventure. Make the most of the rowing boat that comes with your pod, and explore the winding channels at your own pace. Join a guided stand-up paddleboard (SUP) or canoe tour to soak up the scenic Broads up close, or hire a boat and cruise to Oulton Broad, where you can moor up and dine. With a stay here, you’re on the edge of Beccles. It boasts lots of inviting places to eat and drink, as well as lovely shops. Southwold (14 miles away) offers classic coastal charm with its pier, beach huts, and renowned pubs, while the closest beach at Kessingland (10 miles) awaits for a day on the sand.

Step into the light-filled, open-plan living space of your cosy riverside pod, where you'll find a comfortable sofa, a well-equipped kitchenette, and a handy breakfast bar from which to watch the water with your morning brew or evening dinner. A charming, tailored circular window and circular French doors ensure you always have lovely views out onto the beautiful water. It’s a wonderful space to unwind after busy days out exploring the Broads. When it comes time to rest, the pod features an inviting double bedroom and a separate bunk room too. The bedrooms share a contemporary shower room for a refreshing rinse. Toasty underfloor heating throughout ensures comfort in every season.

Throw open the doors to the generous front deck, perfectly positioned to soak up the sunshine at any time of the day. It's a wonderful spot to linger over breakfast, plan the day's adventures, or simply watch the wildlife drift by. Private parking for one car is available in the adjacent boatyard, providing convenient access during your stay.
