Boat trips

​

Trips run daily, weather permitting, starting from 30th March 2025 on our private broad and along the river Bure

past the ruins of St. Benets 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 can be booked in advance upon request.

​

**  Please note, we are in the processes of some major quay heading works due to the extremely high Winter tides over the last 2 years.

You may find parts of the staithe closed off for this maintenance work to be carried out.

If you have any concerns please contact us before your planned day of visit.  **
