Really pleased with the boat (Lullaby 1) and the service received. The briefing was good and ensured we were able to safely drive and moor throughout the week.

We had a fantastic week on Jazz 5. The boat is well equipped & easy to manoeuvre. The staff at the office & yard are very efficient, friendly and helpful. We look forward to returning in the future.

Got the boat this morning 5 mins into the journey my grandson went to the toilet and court his elbow on the guard of the kettle it was lit and very hot he ended up with a nasty burn . This was very dangerous should be checked before people are allowed to board

Hi Paula - We're so sorry to hear about your grandson's injury; that must have been quite distressing. Safety is our top priority, and we appreciate your feedback regarding the kettle guard. We'll ensure that our boats are thoroughly checked for safety before anyone boards. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope your grandson is on the mend soon. Best wishes, Team Barnes Brinkcraft

Love going out on the Norfolk broads and enjoyed going out on a Barnes Brink craft boat and would definitely recommend - the only comment I would make is that quite a few days trippers turned up at once and a member of staff commented that it might be a good idea to stagger bookings in future, I think that idea would make sense and was a good one 👍

Hi Graham, Thank you so much for your lovely review – we’re really glad you had a brilliant trip with us! 😊 We’ll definitely take your feedback on board about the engine noise and window openings. Just so you know for next time, we also have some boats with electric engines which are much quieter – perfect if you’d like a more peaceful cruise along the river. We’re thrilled to hear you’d recommend us and are already planning to come back – we’ll look forward to welcoming you again soon! Best wishes, The Barnes Brinkcraft Team

A lovely clean boat and very helpful staff. Shown how to work the electric boat and the young lad was chat and friendly. He was there when we got back and helped us moor and get things out of boat.
