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.

Lilliputian toadstools



Miniature mushrooms and moss flourish on a fallen rotting tree trunk by the railway embankment and river parks in Hoveton. The toadstools have delicate fluted shiny grey domes ~ could they be Hare's foot inkcaps...


"Undoubtedly, philosophers are in the right when they tell us that nothing is great or little otherwise than by comparison."

Part 2, Chapter 1, Gulliver's Travels, or Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World, by Jonathan Swift, 1726.
