We had the best time on our little electric hire boat. Staff were friendly, helpful and very informative throughout. Would definitely recommend this company, boat was great. If the weather is nice do 2 hours. Beautiful scenery and so peaceful. Great fun.

I saw an influencer talking about this private boat hire and decided to give it a try. We booked online the small boat for two. The staff was helpful and nice. I was a bit worried about driving the boat but it was really easy. I even managed to park the boat and I don’t have any driving license! It was very nice and peaceful. The lake is beautiful! I definitely recommend to do it with your partner or friends or even family.

Nice way to enjoy the view of Windermere lake. You can choose different cruises. We took the red one, starting from Windermere to Ambleside and back. But remember to check the timetable because you might miss the last boat back.

We hired out a rowing boat here for an hour. We actually reached nearly 45 minutes late as we went to the wrong branch first. But the lads at the hire place were kind enough to allow us to take the boat for an hour anyway. Really enjoyed the lake. Would definitely recommend

Brilliant experience would definitely recommend getting a row boat. The lake is beautiful and it’s a great way to see it at your own pace. Staff are really friendly and helpful. A must do!

I hired a self-driving electric boat here for an hour. The staff were friendly and welcoming and ensured we went through the safety form to ensure we understood what to do and how to get help in the case of an emergency. The one thing I would recommend is to book in advance as you can be waiting a couple hours if you walk in. the views on the lake is spectacular and the boat was nice and looked after.

We hired the electric boat for about one hour. Price is very fair, I think better price than the punting price in Cambridge. We enjoyed the Windermere on the boat.

Most reviews mention it but it’s truly the easiest experience to book either in the hut by friendly staff, or online using the site & QR code.Nice and simple guidance on where best to head out & the boat was comfy and clean!

Great fun, beautiful views and even allows dogs on board. We hired a motor boat and went out for an hour but could’ve done more.
