Enjoyable Windermere Sailing Experience - We had a great afternoon sailing on Lake Windermere. Ian was a great skipper, very professional and friendly too. He made sure that our sailing trip was both enjoyable and memorable. We would definitely recommend this as a great Lake District experience.

Truly exceptional - A great experience! Despite my wife and kids being certain I had booked this to try and kill them, it was a great experience and a lot of fun. 100% a key family memory and a story that will be told for years! Thank you so much.

Amazing, fun and educational - My partner booked Ian’s amazing boat as a surprise, as I’ve never tried sailing before, and it was a dream. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable but he made the experience fun, safe and pleasurable for both of us. He was also patient with my partner who hadn’t sailed for a while but was keen to get as hands on as possible. Really also helpful with some restaurant recommendations for us to go after the experience. We will be coming back to the Lakes again and book to get the boat out with Ian. Can’t recommend this experience enough, thank you Ian!

Windermere sailing experience - Fantastic experience skippering the boat, was lucky with weather day before which was torrential rain, Would thoroughly recommend this to all. Ian was very knowledgeable and gave us plenty information on the lake and surrounding areas. We would definitely do this again on our next visit.

The best way to experience the lake! - My husband and I had a wonderful morning sailing with Captain Ian! He was so kind and accommodating, and it truly felt like we had the huge lake all to ourselves. I got to steer the boat, while my husband was perfectly happy to sit back and relax. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience on the water. Thank you, Ian!
