FAMILIES can experience the stunning landscape of wintry Windermere and kick off their Christmas celebrations in style, with special Santa Sailings on England's longest lake.
Windermere Lake Cruises will be running the special festive cruises from the warm and cosy surroundings of a boat beautifully decked out in traditional Christmas decorations on two weekends in December.
Father Christmas and his cheerful elves will create an enchanting experience for all ages, keeping youngsters captivated with festive games and entertainment, as well as individually wrapped gifts to take home with them.
Setting off from Bowness on the lake's eastern shore, the one and a half hour cruises will take in wooded shorelines and tranquil bays along the way and the festive fun will take place twice daily on Saturday December 7, Sunday December 8, Saturday December 14 and Sunday December 15.
