Frequently Asked Questions

Please click here for directions.

Yes, you can bring a max of 2 dogs with you It’s worth remembering some dogs love being on a boat, but not all. We recommend bringing a dog bed with you. We would recommend the Brinklets for dogs as these are the easiest for them to get on and off.

Yes, we do, via the Broadcaster magazine provided with each hire.

Please see our suggested itinerary here.

There is a speed limit between 3 and 5 mph in this part of the Broads National Park. This is designed to protect the wildlife on the banks from wash caused by boats.

"Everything from start to finish was excellent - I will book direct next time - didn't realise you could book direct"

"This holiday has been smooth from start to finish. The staff at the boatyard are so friendly and very welcoming. The boats are very well equipped with everything you need, very modern and stylish. I highly recommend you download there own mobile app as this gives you so much information it incredibly. (10/10 for the app) in a week we completed most of the broards but we did have to top the fuel tank with another £50 as we was against the tide some of the time. We will be back again 💯"
- Richard M
"Thank you for an excellent holiday. Your service is first class. Picking up the boat and returning it was handled efficiently by yourselves. Although the boat is showing its age now, everything thing worked perfectly. We have every intention of returning to holiday on the Norfolk Broads and we will be using Barnes Brinkcraft again."
