Boat trips

Trips run daily, weather permitting, starting from Mother’s Day until the end of October on our private broad and along the river Bure past the ruins of St. Benet's Abbey

 

Our traditional Edwardian style river cruiser 'Primrose' operates daily, running 20 minute and 50 minute trips.

 

In addition to 'Primrose', our pontoon boat 'Primula' is an easily accessible boat (with a ramp when required). Available upon request from April to July and daily during school holidays.

 

It's important to us that you have an enjoyable visit with us so please take note of a few points below....

Our boat trips run from within the garden so please make sure you have a valid garden entry ticket

(or membership) when purchasing boat trip tickets.

It is a 20 minute gentle stroll down to the quayside, please make sure you arrive at the ticket office at least half an hour before your scheduled trip to allow sufficient time to show your tickets walk down to the boat.

If you require our accessible boat please contact us in advance so we can manage our numbers accordingly, we sometimes run only one boat so will need to give our skippers time to switch over.

Private tours and longer trips are available by advance booking. Please call us on 01603 270449 to discuss your requirements.
