Who said family boat trips are just for summer? 👀🍂

Autumn at Esthwaite Water is pretty special — crisp air, quieter days, beautiful scenery and plenty of space to get out on the water together.

Hire a boat, explore the lake, take in the autumn views and then head back to The Boathouse for a coffee, lunch or something sweet.

Because weekends are for making memories too. 🤎
