...about the
Norfolk Broads.

Hi we’re Sara and Tom, your personal guides to the Norfolk Broads

Whether you’re looking to explore by boat, foot, or bike, the Broads provide an unforgettable experience.

Let us introduce ourselves.

Hi, I’m Sara, and I’m part of the Barnes Brinkcraft team and the Twaites family, who have been providing Broads holidays under the same ownership since 1964. I’d like to share my passion for the Broads and help explain why the Norfolk Broads is such a great place to visit and stay.

Tom and I are working on this guide and look forward to sharing all the best bits about the Boards as we develop this guide.

The Broads National Park is one of Britain’s major tourist destinations and also Britain’s largest protected wetland, with 125 miles of water and no locks to stand in your way. The Broads are a favourite with first-time boaters as they offer the perfect combination of easy navigation thriving wildlife, fishing, birdwatching, landmark sites, shopping and picture-perfect pubs along the riverbank.

"Spoke to Polly, very helpful and explained everything I wanted to know and suggested a boat to suit us"
- Robert F
"As usual we are never disappointed with our stays at Barnes Brinkcraft. This time we stayed in Riverview. Accommodation very clean and comfortable. Only suggestion would be some shelving in the bathrooms as nowhere to put any toiletries at all. Have been coming here for 22 years and will definitely be back."
- Gary D
"Spacious lodge with lots of equipment and having the access to our neighbouring lodge Grebe was perfect. Also use of the dayboat was a bonus. Staff in reception and support staff great."
- Sally B
"A great day's boat hire and conveniently located to explore the broads. We took a trip to The Lion for lunch after a quick stop along the suggested route to grab a coffee. Staff friendly and boat exactly as expected. We managed to get two of the parking spaces in their free car park."
