Boating owners are being encouraged to check out life on England’s longest lake this Summer and enjoy a “Sailcation” on Lake Windermere.
Windermere Marina Village has invested over £2 million pounds worth of improvements at the15-acre site, situated in a sheltered inlet near Bowness.
At the start of every summer, there’s a chance to take up a Holiday Mooring on the biggest Marina on Windermere, and the largest inland Marina in the whole of the North.
It costs just £85 for two nights and £25 a night thereafter – making it a low-cost- way of seeing the sights across one of the UK’s leading tourism resorts.
Since the 1980s, the Marina has been a key base for over 400 boat owners who use its jetties to moor a luxury fleet of motor or sail powered cruisers on the scenic 10-and-a-half mile long lake.
Many of the boat owners are people who come from the South East and South West, Manchester, Cheshire, Newcastle and Glasgow.
Marina manager Dan Fairweather said: “We’re in a stunning location, sheltered from the weather and giving access to the lake 365 days a year. We’re centrally located on the eastern shore of Windermere giving the perfect base for exploring the lake.”
As well as easy launch and recovery of boats on its private slipway with staff on hand to help, there’s also:
- Parking for cars and trailers
- A serviced marina berth with hook-up to electric, TV, water and free Wi-Fi
- Access to toilets, showers and laundry facilities
- A comprehensive onsite boatyard and nearby Chandlers
- Challenging sailing conditions but with the safety of an inland waterway with no tides or currents or restrictions on when you can get out on the water
- Sheltered bays, public jetties, pubs and hotels with lake access and jetties for visiting boats
- Lake Warden and Ranger services on hand to help and advise
Holidaymakers can also rent out its fully refurbished Lake District self-catering cottages and luxury apartments which have been upgraded to four and five-star superior class standard.
