Yellow Cruise, Motor Museum & Steam Train
Bowness to Lakeside, with a trip to two top attractions at the south of the lake.
This is an excellent value combined ticket for activities around the south of the lake.
Join the boat at Bowness and travel south to Lakeside Pier, and take a return trip on the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway. Your ticket allows you to visit the fascinating Lakeland Motor Museum on the same day or within 5 days after your cruise/train journey.
To enjoy all the activities on one day will take a minimum of 5 hours.
Alternatively, this ticket can be used with Lakeside Pier as starting point - choose which order you'd like to visit your attractions:
- A return yellow cruise to Bowness (90 minutes)
- Visit to Lakeland Motor Museum and return (minimum 2 hours) - You can visit any time up to 5 days from your cruise/steam train journey.
- Return trip to Haverthwaite Railway Station (minimum 50 minutes)
 | Please note: The Lakeland Motor Museum is 2 miles away from the pier at Lakeside and unfortunately there is no shuttle service between the pier and the Motor Museum. Walking is not advised due to the busy road. This ticket allows the customer to enjoy a cruise on the lake, then visit the Motor Museum separately. The Motor Museum entrance is valid for up to 5 days after purchase. |
