This is at the car park at the end of Lake Road. From here you can take a scenic boat trip on Coniston Water, or hire a boat.
"As with every stunning valley in the Lake District, a stunning stretch of water is key to its beauty. Stretching 5.4 miles, Coniston Water is the third largest ‘lake’ in the Lake District. Our lake also has an average depth of 24.1 metres, with a max depth of 56 metres, for all you pub quiz fans!
There is so much more to Coniston Water than beauty however, our stretch of water was made famous by Donald Campbell in the 1950’s and 60’s as he pursued the water speed record in his Bluebird boats. Find out more about Donald Campbell and his world record attempts at The Ruskin Museum in Coniston village.
Get out on the water, we may be biased but our best times in Coniston have been out on the water. At Coniston Boating Centre we have so much on offer for you to explore; if paddle sports are your thing, we have stand up paddleboards, kayaks and canoes for hire. If you’re looking to try something for the first time, our team will give you all the tips you need to practice in our sheltered bay. For those wanting a traditional Lakeland experience why not hire one of our rowing boats? Lovingly restored for generations, our boats are perfect for a relaxed afternoon floating around in the sunshine. Wanting to go further? Our electric motor boats will take the strain, allowing you to explore the entire lake without breaking a sweat.
A day on the lake isn’t complete without a visit to The Bluebird Café. Whether you’re popping on for lunch, or sipping a nice refreshing drink after an afternoon on the lake, there is no better place to reward yourself while watching the world go by.
Fancy gliding along the lake while someone else takes the wheel? The Coniston Launch sails regularly from just opposite the boating centre, with a fantastic crew of local folk you’re guaranteed to learn something new about the area. You could also step on board the Steam Yacht Gondola. Dating back to the Victorian era and now owned by the National Trust, the Steam Yacht Gondola lets you enjoy the charm of luxury travel, experienced by wealthy Victorians, with its opulent saloons and relaxing open air decks you can glide along the lake taking in the views."
