Cruise & Walk

This is just one of our most popular walks - 3 boats & a walk! Sail on our traditional wooden launches from Ambleside to Wray Castle then take the shoreline walk, south to Ferry House, board another wooden launch and sail back to Bowness. Stop off for a cake & coffee at the pier before sailing back to Ambleside!

Park & Sail

Everyone is aware of the environment and having a day out that's really good value for money, our Park & Sail offering allows you to arrive at one of our 3 piers, spend a day on and around the lake, returning to your car at the end of a full and fun day out! Parking is available at all of our piers.

Fun Days Out

A sail on the lake is great fun, but why not combine it with another top class attraction? We have combined tickets with Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway, The Lakes Aquarium, Lakeland Motor Museum and Beatrix Potter! Take advantage of the Park & Sail and leave your car for the day.
