Why We Love This Unique Experience

Coniston Experience Gifts: Experience the beauty of the Lake District during this scenic one hour boat cruise, with a hop-on, hop-off option that allows for exploring the various jetties along the way.  

You'll board the boat at Coniston Boat Landings, and set off for your scenic cruise. You can either stay for the full hour, or hop on and off at different jetties if you want to spend more time in one place. The boat will head out across Coniston Water, and as you look out at the vast green landscape, be sure to make note of some of the famous landmarks you pass. Wild Cat Island (made famous by the book Swallows and Amazons) Torver, Sunny Bank and Brantwood are all stops on the tour. Fans of writer John Ruskin will have the opportunity to disembark at his former home of Brantwood, and explore the magnificent house and gardens that once belonged to him. After your route is complete, you'll head back across Coniston Water.

This Wild Cat Island Hop On Hop Off Cruise from Coniston is the perfect experience gift for adventurous types, and makes a fun addition to your next Lake District visit.
