Anyone can enjoy a carefree Norfolk Broads boating holiday - no experience required, two happy parties show us how to relax.

Overview
Don't worry about managing the boat - Blakes reassuringly provide all the training and resources you need. The Grant family are soon in control of their cruiser, Mr Grant at the wheel and Mrs Grant in the kitchen. Three girls on the yacht Summer Breeze are cheerfully learning from their mistakes. The Norfolk Broads provides the weather, glorious scenery and wildlife, fishing and bathing, yacht regattas and speedboat races, and nightlife at the pubs, for a relaxing and memorable holiday.
Holiday company Blakes Limited produced an annual catalogue of their Broads hire boats entitled 'Norfolk Broads Holidays Afloat', and gave the same title to one of their films on free loan for home screening or community audiences. The films featured the key locations around the Norfolk Broads, Potter Heigham boatyard, Roys shop and the bridge at Wroxham, St Benet's Abbey, Caister Castle, windmills and pubs, the churches at Ranworth and South Walsham, open water at Oulton Broad, and nearby Norwich and Great Yarmouth.
