What Can I Expect
Sailing on Windermere - what better way for up to six of you to discover the beauty of the Lake District? See the spectacular local scenery from a whole new perspective, as this elegant yacht plies the waters of the largest natural lake in England.
The 34ft luxury yacht Elana is moored at Bowness-on-Windermere, perfectly placed for exploring the stunning Lake District National Park from the water. First launched in 2010, Elana is capable of accommodating up to eight passengers and crew, so there's no shortage of space for you.
We are offering two, three or four hours of sailing on Lake Windermere with a skipper and a host onboard with you. It's your choice as to how hands-on you are. You can assist the skipper at the helm, hoist and lower the sails, or just sit back and enjoy some truly majestic views of Windermere and beyond.
During your trip onboard Elana, you could decide to drop anchor in one of the secluded bays for a while and just chill, watching the glistening waters of Windermere in the sunshine on the teak-decked bathing platform, or curled up on the plush lounge seating below deck.
You can take a dip in the lake using the built-in ladder, before returning to the deck for a nice hot shower. There is also a toilet, fridge and a CD player on board, so if a short swim doesn't appeal, you can always listen to some relaxing music as you bob gently along.
For the more adventurous, there is even the chance to practise some racing techniques, or do a timed trial on the longer sailing sessions.
Before you board, there is a full safety briefing and the crew is always on hand to help. This really is the perfect activity for anyone who fancies exploring the Lake District in style with a private yacht charter sailing on lake Windermere for a blissful few hours.
