Each time we go to the Lake District we go on at least one cruise on Lake Windermere and our last visit was no exception ? we took my mother in law on the journey from Bowness to Ambleside and she loved it!

All in all, we really enjoyed our break away with P & O North Sea Ferries. The crew on board were great, very friendly and efficient, the facilities were fantastic (like a hotel on water) and the whole ...
