  • 5 nights of bed and breakfast ‘crew’ accommodation.
  • Evening meals, including group meals.
  • A place on a skippered half decker for all races.

Take part in Norfolk's most exciting hire fleet race week! Compete with your crew by day and relax in riverside accommodation by night.

Barton Regatta is Norfolks best known hire fleet regatta and has been running in October every year, for over 40 years. Based at the heart of the Norfolk Broads National Park you will experience the thrill of racing a yacht during the day and return to accommodation at the beautiful How Hill Nature Reserve every evening.

With the How Hill accomadation package you will get five nights accomadation in How Hill, which includes a bed in one of the rooms, a hearty breakfast, lunch on the pontoon and all evening meals at How Hill.

Take part in evening activities every night including a quiz night, race briefing and a final night awards dinner with presentations and prizes galore!

NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED - we offer both skippered and self-sail packages. If you are new to sailing you will be allocated a skipper who will meet you each morning and race with you every day. There will be plenty of time to talk tactics and by the end of the week you will be sure to have caught the racing bug!

All racing participants will be based on the pontoon in the middle of Barton Broad. There will be 3 races to participate in most days and a pontoon cafe with refreshments, soup, sandwiches and cake to keep your energy levels up throughout.

We will have exclusive use of the beautiful How Hill for our evening accommodation with ensuite rooms, a lounge and conservatory area for evening socilaising, an honesty bar and hot food available throughout the week.

This is a race week fully of friendly competition and good humour. You do not have to be an experienced racer to take part as the emphasis is on having fun and light hearted competition. If you have always fancied racing a beautiful Norfolk yacht then this is your opportunity.
