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.

"People were very polite and helpful, Even though they were very busy. Definitely come back again. The views are amazing, and we saw seven herons and many more birds. Highly recommend"

"a returning customer for a reason..... Barnes Brinkcraft are simpley best"

"We arrived early, and our boat was ready, so after a warm welcome we set off in our lovely boat, Chorus. The weather could have been kinder but we thoroughly enjoyed our week on this wonderful boat, all modern conveniences and a wonderful comfortable, walk around, bed. It was a pity that a lot of eating places didn't open until the following week but that date was our choice! We would definitely choose Barnes and the same boat if we came again, but age determines that, I'm afraid."
