Stoked Watersports continues to advertise paddleboard, kayak and rowing-boat hire at Fell Foot through 3 October 2026. Booking is essential for the advertised sessions. The watersports meeting point is beside the boathouses and access from the car park includes a steep path and uneven surfaces.

Getting here without a car

Stagecoach service 6 stops outside Fell Foot and links Windermere, Bowness, Newby Bridge, Ulverston and Barrow. The National Trust specifically warns against using the X6 to Newby Bridge as a walking connection because there is no suitable pavement along that section of the A592.

Parking
