Relax and enjoy the idyllic and tranquil surroundings of Woodlakes. Set in 66 acres of enchanting landscape encompassing 5 fishing lakes, Woodlakes is the perfect place to unwind and escape from the stresses and strains of daily life. At Woodlakes all our accommodation is provided by Norwegian Log Cabins which are fully equipped and self-catering. The caravan park and tent field are now closed. As a base to explore Norfolk and the surrounding area you are ideally placed, with the breathtaking north Norfolk coast only 45 minutes away and the 600 acre Royal Estate of Sandringham even closer. Our Norwegian Lodges With more than 1000 years of tradition behind them, the Norwegians know about building solid and secure log cabins for comfortable living. The Norwegian Log Cabins at Woodlakes are light, airy and stylish, while remaining functional, warm and comfortable, and are far superior to the cheaper wood clad units found at many other parks. They are constructed from mature European Spruce at least 100 years old, providing fine-grained logs of density, strength and insulating ability, which are dip-treated with preservative to ensure an indefinite life span with only minimal maintenance. Our cabins are built with timber from responsibly managed forests in Norway and comply fully with the Norwegian Government??s requirement that at least two trees are planted for every one felled. Our cabins are cleverly designed to maximise efficient use of the available space and each comes with a fully fitted kitchen including microwave, bathroom, double-glazing and electric heating. The spacious lounge and dining area contains a colour TV and has French doors opening on to a veranda overlooking the lake. We have various styles of cabin available; 2-bedroom Cedar, Cedar Plus and Spruce and 3-bedroom Willow. Each cabin is double glazed and electrically heated with a fully fitted kitchen including microwave. The Cedar and Spruce have a free-standing electric shower whereas the Cedar Plus and Willow have a full size bath with over bath shower. In the sitting/dining area there is a dining table and chairs, as well as a sofa, armchairs and a colour TV. Woodlakes brings you close to nature during the day while remaining warm and comfortable in your log cabin when night falls ??? the perfect relaxing holiday. Fishing at Woodlakes One of the notable attractions of Woodlakes is the fabulous coarse fishing. All the lakes are well stocked with an array of fish including Carp (up to 40lbs in weight), Roach, Tench, Bream, Rudd, Perch, Pike and Eels. There is the spectacular 12 acre Championship Lake (reserved for residents and club members) which offers the patient angler some superb coarse specimens including Common and Mirror Carp, Bream reaching 12lbs, Tench reaching 10lbs along with Perch, Roach and Rudd. Guests staying in our Norwegian Log cabins overlook the 8 acre Coarse Lake and have the benefit of being able to fish straight from the private swim in front of their cabin. This lake also boasts a wealth of fish including common, mirror, leather, linear and ghost carp. For those after easier fishing there is the 4 acre Two Pole Lake with an abundance of Common and Mirror Carp weighing into double figures, and our 2 smaller lakes The S Pit and The North Lake. The S-Pit runs parallel to the Two Pole lake. Here you will find a good head of fish including common carp, bream, tench, perch and roach. Its hidden swims provide a tranquil spot to while away the hours watching the wildlife and birds that frequent Woodlakes. Finally there is the North lake which holds carp, tench, roach and rudd, and again this lake provides a peaceful spot to relax.
