Top 10 Boat Tours & Water Sports in Lake District, England

July 26, 2021 Mikaela Didonna

Cumbria's valleys and fells (as the low mountains are known) are home to idyllic villages, high moorlands and picturesque lakes. Literary buffs will enjoy Wordsworth's Dove Cottage (go in March to see daffodils), and if you've got kids in tow, visit The World of Beatrix Potter. Or just enjoy a leisurely drive through beautiful scenery.

Sail 'N' Dine

April 2021 marks 35 years of trading and my 14th season, Sail N Dine is the longest running yachting business on Windermere. I operate from Friday to Tuesday and offer 3 different experiences. The 10.30 to 1.30 lunch sail for up to 6 people gives a hands on sailing experience with a fantastic lunch (Sat, Sun, Mon & Tue). The evening sail leaves at 6pm and is a taste of true yachting, eating and drinking out on the Lake! Your 4 course dinner is cooked by me, using the finest local produce and cooked to your specification, whilst the conversation (and wine)flows! I take from 2 to 6 guests on a private basis only (Sat, Mon & Tue). I also offer a 2 hour private afternoon experience without food (Fri & Sun). You must have guessed by now that I am completely a one man band! I am receptionist, chauffeur, wine waiter, skipper, chef and washer upper! Have a look at my website for details, prices, availability and booking and if you have any questions please give me a call or drop me an email.
