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.

"Totally beautifully part of of Norfolk ,are the broads ,so much wildlife ,a relaxing style of life away from the huddle and bussel of daily life ."
- Kevin Moore
"Great company --Best on the broads-- we booked Royal Swan for 7 nights -- fantastic company and great clean boat-- everyone was so helpful --bed was comfortable and the swan has a domestic loo and great shower over a corner bath-- we had the best time ever"
- C Craig-Gilby
"We hired the Prelude 4, which was very comfortable, clean and luxurious. The communication and service we received from Barnesbrinkcraft was amazing, including while we were out on the broads with the boat and had a couple of questions (it was our first time boating)! A photograph of the location of the circuit breaker for the mudweight winch in the handbook would have been handy (it was quite well hidden from view below a mattress in the front cabin), but otherwise everything was so well explained and in any case Barnesbrinkcraft were so easily contactable. We had three very special and beautiful days on the boat - thank you!"
