Property code: OC-RILO

Perfect for a family and their beloved pup, this waterside cottage boasts a riverside location just moments from the popular holiday destination, Beccles. Nestled within the Waveney Valley, this delightful property enjoys seclusion that will truly get you away from the daily grind.

The front door of this stone, chocolate-box cottage opens onto the hub of the house; the spacious open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, with a pride of place curved wall overlooking uninterrupted views of the garden and to the marshes beyond. Your four-legged friend can roam the space as they please while you put your feet up in this relaxing space. When it’s time to turn in, king-size beds are adorned with plush pillows and throws for a great night’s sleep while down the hall, another bedroom offers a cosy drop off. Both with en-suites, this cottage is the ideal escape for two couples to embrace privacy yet still stay social. When the sun rises, enjoy a spot of al fresco breakfast whilst admiring the stunning private walled garden and watch the boats go by. Pooches will love stretching their legs in the enclosed garden space while two-legged guests will love opening up a bottle whilst scouting for kingfishers, otters and barn owls.

Although located in a remote spot, the property is close to many amenities including dog-friendly pubs and supermarkets for stocking up on dog treats. On days out, pull on your boots and clip a lead on your canine companion to enjoy stunning, unspoiled views of the Broads National Park – home to some of the most beautiful stretches of the country and one we’re sure your best pal will love sniffing out.

Entrance to cottage incredibly tight; I understand by talking to people around the cottage, most people have scratched their car on the concrete bollards, including us.

This is our second visit. It is a wonderful bungalow to hire right on the river. Watching the different water sports on the river kept us busy all week. Little cruiser motor boats, bigger cruisers, kayaks, canoes, paddle boarders and rowing boats to name but a few. The wild life was in abundance. We even saw the otter sometimes! The bungalow is welRead morel equipped, cosy and feels like home. Outside space was also well equipped. The BBQ was the best one my Husband had ever used, so he was in his element! The outside chairs were comfortable along with nice tables and a good functioning umbrella. Top marks all round. Thank you to the owners for a fantastic week. The town of Beccles is minutes away with a large Tesco store if you need it. All the little shops were nice to look around. Hide

Fabulous location with only a short walk into town centre. Lots of nice shops, cafes and pubs all close to each other. Bus stop close by and train station a 10 minute walk away. The Lodge is extremely well equipped and everything is great quality and in good condition. Very comfortable sofa and armchairs, and check the cabinet near the 2nd bedroRead moreom door, full of useful info and leaflets, plus books and games. The garden is a delight and although we spent a lot of time exploring the area, we also had many pleasant hours sitting near the river, relaxing and watching the many visiting birds - had to tie up the feeders to stop the ravens upending them. Very little activity on the river due to the time of year, just a couple of cruisers, kayaks and paddle boarders, so very quiet. We live in South Wales and have never been to this area of the country before. Strange to see everywhere so flat when we are used to hills and mountains We really enjoyed ourselves and will definitely be returning, preferably to this property again. Highly recommended. Hide

The bungalow was perfect for us. It is well equipped especially the kitchen. I couldnt find any mention of Shower mat or hairdryer in the information, so for anyone else who needs to know the bungalow had both of these items. Sitting by the river watching the world go by was why we went and we were not disappointed. The highlight of our week was seRead moreeing an otters head pop out of the water a few yards from us. The welcome pack was a lovely surprise with some special elements we didnt expect, so well done to the host(s) for thinking about making our stay special with these added extras. Thank you to our host(s) for everything. We are looking forward to coming again next year Hide

We had the best time at Riverside Lodge! An immaculate and beautifully furnished cottage backing onto the river perfectly designed for two couples. Sumptuous and comfortable beds and everything is there to cook and eat at home and also just a short walk into Beccles centre. The driveway is tight but we had no problem reversing our RAV4 in. TherRead moree is a parking area which comfortably fitted our two cars. We loved the Big Dog Ferry (which we took our dog on) and highly recommend this. The garden is beautiful. We are already talking about returning. Hide
