Bringing back sailing memories - Absolutely fantastic sailing trip with Ian and my 80 year old Dad. Fun, exciting, safe and friendly. Thanks for making it so special Ian!!

This was a wonderful activity for our girls spa weekend Cannot recommend highly enough 😃😃😃😃😃 Suitable for all ! Wonderful 🙏🙏

SSSHHHH the best kept secrete on Lake Windermere. - Have you every been sailing before? No, never, was our reply. Were we in for a treat! Ian our skipper was the gent helping both of us into our PFDs and aboard the boat. With the brief of " I would like to sit back and watch the world go by" ( Sylvia ) and " I would like to do as much as i can" ( Michael) we set off. Ian showed us how the sails were set and explained how to steer, what more do you need to know, ( well loads more but that's a different experience). Through Ian's patient guidance and encouragement, we sailed north up to Ambleside and around an island and back to where we started. The peace and tranquility of sailing has to be experienced to be believed. If you are looking for the bare bones, no frills, you and nature working together, sailing experience this is the trip for you. We both totally enjoyed our sailing experience, sylvia because it was a relaxing pleasurable trip and me because it gave me the thrill of feeling the boat come alive under my hands. We were that wrapped up in our day that we both forgot to use the camera even when we were "Buzzed " by several low level passes of Typhoons and Lightings from the Royal Air Force. Before we knew it our time was up. Many thanks to Ian for a wonderful day and an even greater insight into the world of sailing

A memorable few hours spent on Lake Windermere! - What a lovely, different few hours spent on Lake Windermere! We received great instructions before our time slot and both of us thoroughly enjoyed learning a few sailing basics. We were lucky enough to have some good wind so it made the memory even more special. Thank you Ian for a fab few hours. Highly recommend!

Wonderful experience - Alan is a very good sailor, my son enjoys so much for a beginner sailor guide by him. The view is good but the weather is not very good for water sport that day.

Weather didn't stop us! - We had a great time sailing.. the weather was very wet and windy but Ian was a great host. We all embraced the experience and laughed much of the trip. The kids steered and helped with the sails. Thank you :)

Exceptional Private Sailing Experience on Lake Windermere - We had an amazing time on the Private Sailing Experience at Lake Windermere. Our instructor, Alan, was very friendly and knowledgeable. Our child learned a lot about sailing and had a fantastic experience. We thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to returning. Thanks, Alan!

Amazing experience - My wife and I had a fantastic sailing experience with Ian and I rate it 10 out of ten. Not only was the sailing epic but Ian's personality added that extra touch. Thank you Ian, we will keep in touch with you. Kind regards, Bryan and Debbie

A great afternoon on the water - This was our first time on a yacht and from the start Ian made us feel safe and comfortable. His knowledge of the boat and lake were exceptional and with us at the controls he gave excellent instruction. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sailing Windermere to friends and anyone wanting a sailing experience. Thanks Ian for a lovely afternoon on the water. Joanne & Russ

Fun sailing trip - We were met by Ian at the pontoon, the boat was prepared and ready to go. We set off and Ian explained the workings of the sailing boat. He then dropped sail and let us take the wheel, it was great fun. My girlfriend and I took it in turn to steer. Until it started raining, my girlfriend took cover in the cabin whilst Ian and I sailed around the lake. Sadly the rain became torrential so we had to head back to shore. Even with the weather not so good we would high recommend using Ian and take a trip on the lake again with him. It was an unforgettable experience.
