What to expect

The Steam Yacht Gondola is a rebuilt Victorian, screw-propelled, steam-powered passenger vessel on Coniston Water, England. Originally launched in 1859, she was built for the steamer service carrying passengers from the Furness Railway and from the Coniston Railway. The yacht offers luxurious cruises on Coniston Water, with options for full lake cruises, north lake cruises, and heart of lake cruises. Passengers can enjoy the silent gentle gliding motion and take in the beautiful scenery of Coniston Water. The yacht is also a great way to learn about Coniston's famous connections, including John Ruskin and Donald Campbell. There are no toilets on board, but public toilets are available at the pier, and refreshments can be found at the Bluebird cafe
