HEATHER

Welcome to Heather

Houseboat of character, docked in Hoveton by the River Bure on the Norfolk Broads Waterways.

Heather is cared for by a partnership of friends and family. Our aim is to preserve the distinctive style of the houseboat and enable future generations to enjoy her charms.

Explore the riverside, browse the shops and places to eat and drink ~ and much more beyond monumental Wroxham Bridge.

A sea of masts


A fleet of traditional sailing yachts made a wonderful sight in Hoveton. The yachts berthed above Wroxham Bridge along historic Horseshoes moorings, adjoining the King's Head Hotel. Up until the 1970s, masts on sail boats were a familiar sight around Hoveton and Wroxham, until motorised cruisers with more facilities took precedence.
