Our properties sit in the Severn Valley near Bridgnorth, with the river, countryside walks, The Ship Inn and the Severn Valley Railway all nearby.

Private River Severn fishing for guests
Guests staying with River Steam Holidays can make use of our private River Severn fishing beat, with pegs close to the accommodation. The river is especially well known for barbel and chub, and the Highley area has long been popular with anglers looking for natural river fishing in a quiet Shropshire setting.

The fishing is ideal for guests who want to avoid a long drive each morning. You can wake up in your cottage or lodge, get your tackle ready, and head down towards the river without having to build the day around travel. Several properties also include practical touches such as bait fridges and lockable storage, making them well suited to fishing breaks.
Self catering cottages for fishing holidays
Our accommodation includes dog friendly cottages and lodges sleeping from couples up to larger groups. If you are travelling with friends, family or other anglers, you can book more than one nearby property and keep everyone close together while still having your own space.
