Autumn Walker's Ticket

As our busiest pier, Bowness offers the widest variety of cruises on the lake.

Located at postcode LA23 3HQ, it's a 2-minute walk from Bowness village and the closest pier to Windermere Village (10 minutes by bus/car or a 25-minute walk).

While we don't have our own parking, there are over 400 pay-and-display spaces within walking distance. You'll also find easy access to bus connections and national rail services via Windermere Railway Station.

Located at the northern tip of Windermere, Ambleside (Waterhead) Pier offers some of the most stunning views of the Lake District fells.

The pier's postcode is LA22 0EY. It's an easy, flat walk just a half-mile from Ambleside village center, with regular buses also available.

While the pier has a small car park, there are over 200 public pay-and-display spaces within a five-minute walk. You'll also find easy access to local bus connections.

Originally the jetty for the neo-gothic castle (currently closed due for refurbishment), our pier can only be accessed by foot from the grounds, castle and nearby Low Wray campsite.  It's an ideal starting point to visit the grounds, cafe or embark on our Walkers Ticket (seasonal).

The pier's closest postcode is LA22 0JA and the gravel path from the castle and car park will take 10 minutes to walk.

Brockhole is more than just a pier; it's the perfect destination for family fun - lakeshore walks, adventure play areas and Zip World.

The pier's closest postcode is LA23 1LJ but is only accessible by gravel footpath at the bottom of Brockhole's gardens.

The on-site car park can get busy, but it has great bus connections with a bus top outside on the busy A591 - about a 10-minute walk from our pier on the lakeshore.
