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.

Riding the waves


Whatever the weather, the waterways on our doorstep are a great place to use.

This fine atmospheric drawing by multi~talented Nigel Royall illustrates extreme climatic conditions ~ as his historic motor boat WILLING BOYS heads down across Breydon on the ebb against a head wind.

Nigel was taking the local launch, down the harbour to Brush Bend, Gorleston, WB's old home from about 1903 to 1946.
