This is a really pleasurable way to enjoy a river holiday , weather and scenery of the area without the hassle of mooring. however the fun of cruising the rivers gives a real sense of adventure as the area is so diverse, from the peaceful country walks to the moorings in the centre of Norwich where the shopping is brilliant.

This sort of holiday is a total break – slow paced and relaxing. Whilst you can plan each day it really does not matter if you don’t reach your planned destination – this is probably because you have found something interesting on your journey, so you will get there but maybe a bit later than planned, but it doesn’t matter as this type of holiday is just that – a pure chill out!! People you meet en route are helpful, friendly and we had an all round great time.
Mrs. G from Dunstable

Relaxing, fun, bit of a challenge, meet other people in great surroundings.
Mrs W from Warrington

Mr C from Thatcham

If you want a holiday where you can completely relax and come home feeling refreshed it has to be a Broads holiday – where you can experience the fresh air and enjoy the the wonderful wildlife. Everyone is so friendly and helpful to novices at boating – a unique experience!

Boating on the Broads is a holiday once experienced never forgotten. It allows you the time to completely relax and enjoy nature at its very best. You can enjoy complete isolation if you wish, or enjoy one of the many welcoming pubs along the river. The Broadland people are always so friendly. We have used Hoseasons for 7 years and specifically Richardsons for the last 4 years and cannot fault the level and quality of service received.
Miss D from Gravesend

Everything is made easy and once you are on your way, time just seems to stand still! It is the most relaxing, stress reducing holiday I’ve been on!
