Pennine Sailing Club

Andrea, the organiser at Pennine Sailing Club, wanted to share a friendly note with the sports community about the club. Located on Winscar Reservoir above Holmfirth in the Peak District National Park, Pennine Sailing Club is run entirely by its dedicated members and volunteers.

The club has top-notch facilities, including a warm clubhouse with a full kitchen, comfortable changing rooms, and a cosy bar with views of the surrounding countryside.

Pennine Sailing Club caters to all levels of sailing enthusiasts. They host fantastic dinghy racing on Sundays and Thursday evenings. For those looking to improve their skills, they offer RYA training courses from Level 1 to Level 3 with fully qualified trainers.

If casual sailing is more your style, they have that too, along with radio-controlled boat racing as a fun alternative. The club also has a dinghy park, providing a safe and convenient place for members to store their boats with easy access to the water.

Beyond sailing, the clubhouse is a great place to socialise and enjoy the stunning Peak District. It's a comfortable and inviting spot to relax and chat after a day on the water.

Membership at Pennine Sailing Club is open to all. Andrea encourages anyone interested in sailing to come by and learn more about the club and the opportunities available. It's a great place to meet like-minded people and immerse yourself in the joys of sailing.

For anyone curious about the club in action, they have three webcams on their website, showing live conditions on the water and the activity at the club.

Andrea believes that Pennine Sailing Club offers a wonderful sailing experience in a picturesque setting. With a welcoming community, excellent facilities, and a range of activities, it's the perfect spot for sailors of all levels to enjoy their free time.
