‘Pawfect’ pooch pass for dog owners

With National Pet Month kicking off in April, Cumbria’s most popular attraction, Windermere Lake Cruises is offering its furry passengers a very special treat.

In honour of dogs everywhere the cruise specialists are now operating an all-year-round dog friendly policy, giving all well behaved dogs free travel when accompanied by their obedient owners - so even canine companions can appreciate the region’s stunning scenery. There are even onboard doggy bowls!

Home to England’s largest lake and a multitude of attractions and events, Cumbria really is a dog’s paradise and the perfect place for a dog friendly family holiday.

After a day spent cruising on board one Windermere Lake Cruises’ vintage steamers and enjoying beautiful long walks around the surrounding landscape, families can treat their pooch to a spot of retail therapy with Paws by the Lake in Ambleside; a boutique one stop shop for all things pet related.

Once an edible, playable or even wearable souvenir of his adventure has been chosen, families can refuel over a delicious meal at the nearby Queens Head Hotel which is genuinely dog friendly and boasts delicious food in the picturesque valley of Troutbeck.
