Set in a picturesque location on the shores of Ullswater, the Lakeland village of Glenridding was described by Wainwright as ‘The loveliest square mile in all of Lakeland’.
Sailing Tuition and Boat Hire on beautiful Ullswater.
From a stunning lakeshore location, we offer a wide range of RYA Sailing Courses. We also provide Activities for Children, Corporate Team Building, Group Activities and Stag & Hen Activity Days.
In addition we also offer Boat Hire, Launching Facilities and Boat Storage.
Whether you are new to water sports or a seasoned sailor, our friendly experienced team will be able to get you out on the water. There is no better way to enjoy the stunning views on arguably England’s most beautiful lake!
Our hire fleet includes double and single kayaks, Canadian Canoes, and a choice of sailing dinghies. We also have our extremely popular gaff-rigged Traditional Boats. These beautiful boats have tan sails and are gaff rigged, so they are more sedate to sail and perfect for those wanting a more traditional sailing experience. .
