Windermere is een van de makkelijkste plekken in het Verenigd Koninkrijk om met hond te bereiken en te verkennen, want treinen, lokale bussen en de boten op het meer nemen allemaal honden mee. Windermere zelf heeft geen eigen vliegveld; de meeste bezoekers komen aan via de zijlijn die vanaf de West Coast Main Line in Oxenholme rechtstreeks naar station Windermere leidt, en lopen dan of nemen de korte bus naar beneden naar Bowness en het meer.

| Vervoermiddel | Beleid | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| National Rail trains | Under the National Rail Conditions of Travel, every passenger may bring up to two dogs free of charge on any train in Great Britain. Dogs must be on a lead or in an enclosed carrier, are not allowed on seats or in restaurant cars, and a third dog would be charged half the adult fare. The scenic Windermere branch line from Oxenholme is short and dog-easy. | ๐ก |
| Windermere Lake Cruises | All dogs travel free on the scheduled lake cruises and self-drive boats and do not need to be booked in advance. Dogs must be kept on a lead at all times and off the seats, and there are dog water bowls on board; on the busiest sailings staff may ask you to move to give space to other passengers. | ๐ก |
| Local buses and taxis | Stagecoach buses, including the 599 open-top that links Windermere station, Bowness and Ambleside, generally allow well-behaved dogs at the driver's discretion; keep the dog on a lead and off the seats. Taxis are also at the driver's discretion, so mention the dog when booking to avoid a refusal. | ๐ก |
Windermere has no airport of its own. Drivers come off the M6 at Kendal, while by rail you change at Oxenholme (Lake District) on the West Coast Main Line onto the short branch line into Windermere station, all dog-friendly and free for up to two dogs. The nearest airport is Manchester (MAN), roughly 90 minutes away by road, with Glasgow and Newcastle also within reach for a hire car.
Windermere town, Bowness and the lakeshore are close enough to link on foot, and the mile between the station and the pier is a pleasant downhill walk. The 599 bus shuttles between them if the weather turns, and once you are at Bowness pier the lake cruises double as dog-friendly transport, dropping at Ambleside, Brockhole and Lakeside, where the Lakeland Motor Museum and a heritage steam railway are close by.
