"Great base for exploring Norfolk, excellent value"

Booked 7 night stay in cottage online for 6 of us in May, price was great and included days boat hire. When we arrived at the cottage we wasn't disappointed. Cottage was well equipped, superbly decorated, beds were one of the comfiest I've slept on.. Location is lovely, right on the water. Latham's shop over the road is well stocked, pub and chip shop next to them were awful would avoid, walk into Potter Heigham and the pub there was great. Nice and easy to get about with Yarmouth, Cromer etc all within easy driving distance. Decent Indian/Chinese takeaways and a Tesco 10 minute drive away in Stalham. Day out on boat was good fun went to Horning for lunch lovely experience. All in all a great holiday and we are looking to book again for next year.

"couldnt be more helpful"

my mum and I were due to go to one of the riverside cottages for a week I n may of this year, but on the day before we should have gone, my mum had a fall, and was rushed to hospital so we could not go. Herbert Woods were so very understanding, and helpful as we didn't know if we would be able to make it for the end of the week or not, but they were so kind about leaving the option open for us, unfortunately my mum is still in hospital and we were unable to go at all.

I would certainly recommend this company to anyone

"Value for money"

"Great time loved it and so did children so relaxing"

Would recommend herbert woods to all . The staff were very friendly and informative nothing was to much trouble.

"Fabulous holiday!"

The customer service from start to finish was seamless, efficient and we were quickly on our way. The staff were friendly and helpful and the boat was exactly as described - perfect!

"Unbeatable !"

We came to the broads in February and hired through herbert woods and we could not fault the service we were given. Right from the start the staff were very attentive and there was no hanging around. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and we would highly recommend herbert woods to anyone.

"Well appointed reliable boat perfect for a large group"

It was great having the two different boats for our weekend prowling on the broads Herbert woods staff were very helpful and relaxed when explaining the boats to us novices. The boats had all the bits to make cooking and eating easy only issue was with the taller of our group who didn't fit in the cabins, as the beds only really fit the under 6 ft
Great fun and easy to clean up after a crazy weekend,

"Cottage holidays go to Herbert woods"

We have just had a lovely week in a cottage from Herbert woods on the river thurne at potter heigham it was very clean and comfortable we got a nice welcome when we arrived,we took our little jack Russell he loved it, it's within easy reach of the coast and there's a large store where you can get all your supplies we really enjoyed it we would recommend it to anyone good value for money.

"Fantastic Holiday on board the Golden Light"

Seamless booking, reservation and check in. If you havent boated before, then attention is definitely required on the engine checks, driving and mooring methods. However as first timers, we would definitely use Herbert Woods again. Maps were excellent, boat in great condition, all working order, friendly service team, great and modern boat yard with wifi means that we considered it better to pop back to Potter Heigham for water and supplies than trying to battle other busier or smaller boat yards. As first timers, we thought that the boat was easy to handle and everything straighforward and well documented.

"Would recommend unreservedly, helpful staff, nice clean boat, with minimum fuss"

We hired a boat (2 couples) for a weekend and from the friendly greeting on arrival, clear and concise instructions on safety and the boats workings we set off on a well presented very clean boat. We thoroughly enjoyed cruising down the river all the way to Great Yarmouth stopping off along the way for some very enjoyable food and drink. On return the hand over went smoothly with minimum off fuss. Would definitely go back to Herbert woods again.
