Thanks for comments , I did launch at Swallowtail, Ludham, and you’re right , a lovely spot , great people and a great slipway . £35 for launch and parking for the week, but a nice feeling and a safe place for the trailer . Also , as you say , a great location for the north broads.
The OGA guys say they used to sale from Bureside, I should have checked it out as I passed. They say The Lion at Thurne is a good pub too.
I wasn’t over impressed with the trailer parking at Sutton Staithe Boatyard, felt a bit like grass at the side of the main road, although the people were friendly. £6 each way , no parking fee,
There was a good slip at Wayford , but only passed by , don’t have any info.
Barton Turf Adventure Centre itself, was a good base for the OGA, and good value but slipways not suitable for a Winkle Brig. Cox’s boatyard say “no cars on our slip” which I assume means they launch with their tractor, not sure on costs .
Many Thanks
