“Lovely staff, very helpful and friendly. Great boatyard with good facilities. Boats are well maintained and always hired out very clean and well equipped.”
“Just had a fortnight on Brinks chorus what can I say, it was brilliant so much space for a small boat, mooring was no problem with both bow and stern thrusters for help.
We’ve been coming for years now and I can definitely say this was one of the best boats yet”
Thank you Darren
I have to say - I am a bit envious. It is a great boat, a match to one made for a private customer - making it fall easily into the luxury boating sector
We hope to see you again soon - Possibly on Chorus 2 or 3 launching in 2026
All the best,
The Barnes Brinkcraft Team
“Brilliant holiday in stay sail a lovely clean house and the day boat made it even better loved every minute and will hopefully be back next year . Well done Barney's brinkcraft 🤙💕”
“We recently had the pleasure of hiring a Barnes Brinkraft elite boat for 4 nights on the Norfolk Broads. The boat was superb as were all of the Barnes Brinkraft staff. From the booking process through to the holiday everything went smoothly. I highly recommend Barnes Brinkraft for anyone considering a stay on the Broads.”
“From booking, to the boat and the boating experience, we loved it and the service provided by all was first rate. Couple of niggles about the length of the beds from those over 5' 10' but we had a fabulous week.”
Thanks Barbara
What a lovely picture and great review. For anyone wanting to check the length of the beds on board a particular boat please do ring the office and they will be able to help you
We hope to see you again soon
All the best,

“As first time boaters, we had a great time, we were instructed on how to use the boat, Casper was very informative and answered all our questions, and put us at ease, before we left the boatyard. We considered a great adventure”
“Another fantastic holiday on board Tempo 6. The standard of this boat is amazing. Real luxury. The handover from the boatyard was excellent and we were able to get underway shortly after the trial run. All in all, I would highly recommend Barnes Brinckcraft.”
“From start to finish everyone was very welcoming and polite. Nothing was too much trouble. Loved the boat Qartet 1 which was beautifully prepared for us which made all the difference for our lovely week on the Broads.”
Thanks Steven
Both for your review, great photo and some pretty impressive mooring up - in what looks like quite a small space to turn around in!
Kind regards,
The Barnes Brinkcraft Team
“Booking process and follow-up emails are clear and concise.
On arrival, there was a friendly greeting and also on the ocassion we went to reception about an issue it was dealt with effectively”
“My 4th time with Barnes having last tried a competitor who I shall not name. My return to Barnes says it all. The boat (Serenade 3) was spotless in collection and ready early. We had a fantastic holiday.”
Thank you Duncan - for both the review (we are blushing a bit here) and the picture
We hope to see you again soon
Kind regards,

“We were a party of 4 , on Concerto 1
, the boat is older and was well used, a little snug , and a little tatty in places.
There were one or two problems to be made to boat yard.. relatively easy fixes , ??
none of that stopped us from enjoying our holiday, the scenery was beautiful, plus we saw several kingfishers ,beautiful houses and a few ducks and geese , not forgetting the magnificent swans. No coots or more hens though?
Would do it again”
Hi Cathie
Thank you so much for your 5⭐ review! We’re really pleased you had a great time on the Broads and spotted so much wildlife – those kingfishers are something special. Concerto 1 is one of our mid-range cruisers and, after a busy season, she’ll be getting a good spruce-up ready for 2026. Thanks again for choosing Barnes Brinkcraft – we’d love to welcome you back aboard soon!
All the best,
The Barnes Brinkcraft Team
“We have used the facilites at the boatyard during our holiday recently on the Broads and also in previous years. The staff have always been pleasant and accommodating.
W decided to book our next Broads holiday with Barnes Brinkcraft because of this. The staff who dealt with my phone booking were very good and professional and dealt with my booking promptly.
We lookforward to seeing you next August.”
