'A great family holiday, relaxing, but lots to do and great fun for the kids. The boats and the Broads in general are safe and easy to handle although still a bit of a challenge. Good service from the boat yard instilled a good sense of security.'

Mr T
, Alcester
, Warwickshire,
on 01/09/2007
'On arrival at our boat yard we were warmly greeted, given loads of information, shown around the boat etc and told to ask for help pr advice at any time during our holiday. We had a wonderful week, 5 adults two children (one with special needs) and a baby - we chose an 11 berth cruiser for the extra space due to family dynamics. The boat was great and it was such fun taking turns at being "captain", we all fished constantly, watched the wildlife (lots of ducks for the little ones), visited a couple of lovely riverside pubs (one right next to our boatyard), and we were so busy we didn't get chance to visit any of the many attractions around the Broads. We're going back next year to amend this!'
Mr S
, Bedford
, Bedfordshire,
on 11/08/2007
'Probably the best UK Holiday I have ever had, mixing tradition with modern lifestyles. Our holiday was superb and I would suggest everyone tries it at least once!'
Mr G

on 14/07/2007
'As first timers it was such a relaxed family holiday and everyone so helpful. We did loads of fishing, chatting, running around, stopping off at pubs and villages, shopping - a brilliant time was had by all. Came back full of beans and the kids loved it, we cannot wait until next time - thank you for the experience, it was well worth it!'

Mrs H
, Southend
, Essex,
on 18/08/2006
'Can't think of anything that would have made the holiday better. Maybe if fewer boats were on the rivers then mooring up in some of the more popular spots would have been easier-or maybe it was just our lack of experience that made this a little stressful at times! We had a great holiday, the boat was fantastic and the staff at the boatyard were friendly and extremely helpful.'
Mrs E
, BURY ST. EDMUNDS
on 04/12/2009
'We love the Broads, very relaxing!'

, Attleborough
, Norfolk,
on 01/11/2008
'In 2009 we found the guys at Horizon, Acle Bridge were just as genuinely friendly and helpful as we found them in 2005 and earlier years. The Norfolk Broads is a brilliant place for a relaxing holiday in an area that is so unique to the U.K.
We're both retired now - I'm 70 plus and my wife is over 65 but the boats are so very easy to handle and comfortable that makes a great holiday break for us --- we certainly hope to revisit our favourite haunts again.'

Ms C
, STEVENAGE

, MIDDLESBROUGH
, Cleveland,
on 15/07/2009
'It was a world away from the rush of normal life, a step back in time.

Mrs B
, NEWTON ABBOT

'The most repeated statement I hear when I discuss my Broads holiday with someone is,"I have always fancied going but never tried it",and then follow with some sort of criticism of a holiday they know nothing about. My advice to these landlubbers is try it and see for themselves. They will find peace, tranquility, rest and a world of exploration ,whether it be socialising or Mother Nature. We are now in our 36th year of holidaying on the Broads and have already booked our 37th with Hoseasons.'

Mrs S
, LEATHERHEAD
, Surrey,
on 29/08/2009
