We have received numerous enquiries to recommend day boat hire companies from our guests.
With our own 30ft quay heading at the bottom of the garden, we decided to invest in a day boat and offer to our guests for the duration of their holiday.
I have now received my Hire Boat Operators Licence, upgraded the Boat Safety Scheme certificate, tolls and insurance and she is now ready to go.
Grace is available for hire for the duration of your holiday, this allows full flexibility of when you use Grace, if it's a beautiful evening or you want to get out before it gets busy, nothing is stopping you heading out for a couple of hours and not feeling that you have to be out for 6 hours to make the most of your day only hire.

Canoeing is a great way to discover this beautiful wetland, and as they're silent, you will be able to get closer to the wildlife which includes water voles, great crested grebes and even otters.
Discover the many nooks, crannies and otherwise inaccessible areas out of view from both passing pedestrians and larger pleasure boats.
If you plan to take the canoe to one of the other launching sites you are responsible for it's safe carriage and return.

The name Horning means the "folk who live on the high ground between the rivers".
Its history dates back to 1020 when the manor was given by King Canute to the newly founded Abbey of St. Benet at Hulme.
Horning Parish extends along the south bank of the River Bure to Thurne Mouth and includes the ruins of St Benet's Abbey & St. James Hospital.
Horning is situated on the River Bure (pronounced locally "Burr") between Wroxham and Ludham.
A ferry plied across the river for more than 1,000 years.
Archaeologists have found ancient earthworks in Horning, which run alongside the River Bure, possibly dating to the early Saxon period.
