点评:I spent a week on Windermere with my daughter, and we wish it had been 2. We stayed at the Beech Hill hotel and spa, but had pre-booked 2 days' sailing with Low Wood Bay WaterSports. The staff at Low Wood were friendly, knowledgeable, and - to the last person - super competent and passionate sailors to boot. The Varianta 18 sloop we booked started with a brief exam (as I had left my RYA license behind), and a safety briefing, then we collected our lifejackets and were shown the boat. We soon got out, and during the initial 4 hour slot took a wonderful sail down to the Windermere Jetty museum and back, exploring a few coves on the way there, plus some boathouses and the jetty at Brockholes on the way back. Sailing time was cut short a bit early with some high winds coming up in the afternoon, but to be sure proper sailing was had throughout. The second day we repeated the tack down to the Jetty museum, then headed all the way back up to Ambleside for a picnic lunch on the public dock then a quick pint at the Waterhead Inn, and finishing with a casual sail past the dock at Wray Castle and back for a final de-brief plus a pint and smashburger at the Low Wood Bar Resort.
翻译:我和女儿在温德米尔度过了一周,真希望是两周。我们住在Beech Hill酒店和水疗中心,但提前预订了Low Wood Bay WaterSports的两天航海之旅。Low Wood的员工热情友好,知识渊博,而且——说真的,他们都是超级专业、充满热情的水手。我们预订的Varianta 18单桅帆船,一开始进行了简单的考试(因为我忘了带RYA执照),然后进行了安全须知讲解,之后我们领取了救生衣,并领着他们上了船。我们很快就下船了,在最初的4个小时里,我们乘船游览了温德米尔码头博物馆,然后返回。途中,我们探索了几个小海湾,回程时还参观了一些船屋和布罗克霍尔斯的码头。由于下午刮起了大风,航行时间提前结束了,但为了确保航行顺利,我们全程都顺利完成了。第二天,我们再次航行至码头博物馆,然后一路返回安布尔塞德,在公共码头享用野餐,然后在 Waterhead Inn 喝一品脱啤酒,最后悠闲地驶过 Wray Castle 码头,然后返回进行最后的汇报,最后在 Low Wood Bar Resort 喝一品脱啤酒并吃一顿美味的汉堡。
