Renting a Holiday Home by the river through Riverside Holidays gives you access to some of the best fishing in the UK. The Norfolk Broads covers over 150 miles of rivers and broads and are renowned
for excellent bream, rudd, tench, roach, perch, carp and pike.
Most of our properties have private riverside gardens, or access to fishing a few yards away making a perfect location for your fishing holiday in the Norfolk Broads.
Some of our holiday homes have a day boat included but you can also hire a boat that can be moored at your holiday home so you can choose between angling from land or out on the river or broad.
Please see individual property information to see if a boat is included in your stay or see our Day Boat Hire page for suggested places to hire a boat from: www.riversideholidaysnorfolk.uk/boathire.
Fishing Season & Licensing
Closed season for fishing operates through the broads from the
16th March to the 15th June inclusive.
A fishing licence is required to fish on the Norfolk Broads, even from the private garden of your riverside holiday home. Information about Fishing Licencing can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/fishing-licences.
It is worth noting that Children under 13 do not need a licence. Licences for children aged between 13 and 16 are free however you’ll still need to get a junior licence. You must always carry your rod fishing licence when you’re fishing or you could be prosecuted and fined up to £2,500.
