For your safety and comfort
The safety of our visitors, volunteers and staff remains our top priority. Face masks are not compulsory but we recommend that you wear one in any area of your visit that is enclosed and crowded, including when looking into the boiler room. We'll continue to provide hand sanitiser and stick to our high standards of cleanliness.
Our updated terms and conditions can be found below with full details of what to expect. We'll not be handling cash on board, so we recommend booking online in advance for the Coniston circular cruises. One-way journeys are subject to availability on the day.
You may break up your round trip ticket by hopping off at any jetty and re-joining the vessel later, subject to there being available space and conditions on the day. Please discuss your plans with the crew before you disembark.
