Just enjoyed a 'Taster' on Trade Wind and upgrading from a dinghy sailor to yachting I cannot recommend the experience enough. We had an amazing sail, the manoeuvrability and on board facilities surprised our previous dinghy sailing experience. The Staff were so welcoming and encouraging. So much effort has been made to ensure the yachts fulfill the current criteria. Thank you. We look forward to a lengthier sail next time.

Just enjoyed a fantastic week on Leda. A beautiful 34ft gaff rigged yacht that sails like a Norfolk Broads half decker but with all the comforts of a fully fitted yacht. Everyone at the yard is really friendly and welcoming. We had a great time and cannot wait to go back.

Just spent a fabulous 4 days on Windjammer, a 36-year-old gaff-rigged beauty. Lovely to sail, beatifully kept. Very comfortable double berth and the singles were long enough for our 6'4" son. The team at Eastwood Whelpton are just excellent. Can't wait to go back next year!

Fantastic fleet of beautifully maintained Norfolk Broads yachts to sail on. Staff were very freindly, and everything was ready for us when we arrived. Our yacht "Tornado" was in excellent condition and had been thoroughly cleaned too. She sailed very nicely, and all in all we had an absolutely fantastic week on the beautiful Norfolk Broads. We thoroughly recommend using Eastwood Whelpton for a sailing holiday on the Broads.

My wife and I have just returned from a week sailing on the beautiful Norfolk Broads, we hired a yacht from Eastwood Whelpton. With the Covid-19 it was still like being in a bubble but in a lovely place, the team at the boat yard were so prepared with a email a couple of days prior with all the info needed and instructions on their Covid protections and procedures.
The boat was prefect for us, a lovely welcome pack and the handover chap was professional and funny which made it even more relaxing.
Once out on the rivers it was so relaxing. There were pubs open for drink and food, so evenings were relaxing too. After having two holidays cancelled abroad this was just prefect.
Thank you Norfolk Broads and a huge thank you Eastwood Whelptons we WILL be back.
