Woodlake's Park - Stowbridge, West Norfolk - Log Cabins & Glamping Pods With Excellent Carp Fishing

If you have visited Norfolk before from the north or midlands then you’ll probably have driven past Woodlakes’s park, I know I have! As it is located in West Norfolk it is really quick to get to from Cambridgeshire. From my experience visiting Norfolk, I’d describe this as a proper fishing holiday rather than a holiday in Norfolk. It is quite a drive to the beautiful Norfolk coast from here!

  • Lodges sleep from 2 to 8 people on cabin lake, a 10 acre specimen carp fishing lake

Thornham Lakes Lodges - Near Thedford - Mixed Coarse And Carp Fishing

Thornham Lakes makes this list as it would be a good place to go for a family holiday where you can do some fishing while there. The logs are done to a good standard but don’t fall into the luxury category. They are located in West Norfolk, around halfway between Kings Lymm and Bury St Edmunds. 

The Cabins
Thornham lakes standard lodges

Lodge info

  • More basic lodges than the others on the list, this is reflected in the price making these excellent value.
  • The lodges are all 2 beds with one double and one twin. 
  • The lodges are by the lake and are not specifically a private swim. The lake is around 10 meters from the lodge with a smaller lake at the end of the drive.  

Fishing info

  • The lake is a 1-acre lake with 5 lodges alongside it.
  • We would try and avoid the first lodge on the lake as this has little water in front of it. The furthest lodge from the entrance has the most water to go at. 
  • The website list the carp as 30lb, we are not able to independently very this with any photos. We would class this as a pleasure fishing lake rather than a specimen lake.

Norfolk Fishing Lakes With Hot Tubs

There are not many lakes with accommodations and hot tubs in Norfolk.

Here are all the ones we have found – 

  • Head Fen Country Retreat
  • Woodlake’s Park
  • The Lilly Pad Glamping Pod

Norfolk Glamping Pods With Fishing Lakes

We have found a number of glamping pods in Norfolk that are by fishing lakes or on the banks of fishing lakes. These are commonly small sites with just one or 2 pods. With some of the pods, you get exclusive use of the lake!  

Glen Farm , Norfolk, A Fantastic Carp Fishing Lake & Glamping Site

I was so impressed when I first saw Glen Farm, this is everything glamping and fishing are about. There have 2 lakes on site, one is a day ticket water. There is just 1 yurt tent on the site with a separate kitchen and toilet/ show block. The site does not allow night fishing so you have the place to yourself later in the day. This is a perfect rustic getaway in a traditional yurt tent. 

This is an area I have visited a few times, if you want to go to the beach head to Mundelsy – it’s fantastic. It is best to check the tide times and go closer to low tide!

The lake is small at 1 race but looks perfect for some downtime fishing in the peace and quiet of the Norfolk countryside.
