Horatio Nelson’s homeland springs back into life as the nights draw out and daffodils bloom on the banks. Now is an ideal time to explore the Norfolk Broads’ meandering waterways at the helm of your own boat. After a quick tutorial, it’s time to leave the boatyard and cruise against a backdrop of bulrushes, windmills and Norfolk’s never-ending skies, on a journey between Potter Heigham and Wroxham. With wide channels and a scattering of attractive villages, it’s a perfect trip for a long weekend. Pull up alongside the modest ruins of St Benet’s Abbey, a medieval monastery that looks lost in time when seen through the morning mist. There are miles of free 24-hour moorings along the banks, but one stopover to plan for is outside the Swan Inn in Horning, for a dinner of fish and chips. Wake up to swans flying past the portholes and to white triangular wherry sails gently making their way along the River Bure.
