The Old Bike Shop Accommodation, Stunning Property for large Groups

A few years back, I decided that I would jump into the world of property development. Following many long, hard years at work, and then property development, now managing many long-term tenants across 4 cities, decided to operate short term lets in the Fine City of Norwich. I bought a Bike Shop with ancillary units in Norwich in 2018. I know the city well having worked with major financial institutions as an IT Consultant there since 2000.

Till date. Anand and I, think Norwich is the best place for kids with the whole of the Norfolk coast and the various Kids attractions all within 30 min to 45 min drive.
I have now given up the 9-5, while Anand pursue his job, occasionally helping me operate The Old Bike Shop Accommodation in Norwich (Company name: Sterling Serviced Apartments Ltd)

Having raised our family and worked in Norwich we realised that the accommodation that we offer need to be varied and tailored for both business and leisure. We can say with hand on heart that the safety and care of our guest is paramount to us.

This property was a mid-19th century building which has been operating as a bike shop since 1890, before which it used to be a corner shop. We did uncover a wall with posters of Gravy, during renovation. The previous owners had bought the shop from a Raleigh dealer. It traded under the name Streetlife and was one of the prestigious hangouts for all cyclist enthusiasts.
Which is why, we have taken the bike theme inside. When we were developing, the fitter, the electrician, one of the sales agents, our interior designer and later a social media marketer, had all bought their bikes from this shop. We kept referring this to The Old Bike shop for months and when we wanted to name the Serviced accommodation, we could not call it anything else.
As a family run company, we value you booking directly with us and know it’s the experiences that make your stay that extra special.
We cannot wait to host you!
