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.

This duck hath a pleasant seat


A sweet looking lost, or possibly abandoned fledgling duckling was rescued from under some commercial waste bins, at the rear of Granary Staithe. The baby duck was then kindly taken by some locals to nearby Wild Touch Wildlife Encounters and Rescue, based near Stalham.

If you see any injured water fowl and other animals in distress, nearby, please call David at Wild Touch on: 07765 345441

Local waterside businesses, public houses and boat companies in Hoveton and Wroxham; plus officials, on, or near the rivers, are often at hand to help secure the animal and transport them to safety.

For further information, please see: Wild Touch

Then, my queen, in silence sad,
Trip we after the night's shade:
We the globe can compass soon,
Swifter than the wandering moon.

Act 4, Scene 1
