THE FISHING LAKE.

"Time is precious, waste it wisely"...

 

The lake is just under two acres in size, having an average depth of 8ft, and with a sand/clay bottom. There are four large swims/platforms, providing ample room to set up a bivvy and fishing equipment, accommodating a maximum of three anglers comfortably.  A small island sites two of the swims.  The island is beautifully sheltered by a covering of trees, but at the same time allows ample casting room.  The two other swims are located, one to the corner of the lake: and the other immediately outside the lodge, just a few steps away from the lodge veranda.  The lodge swim is particularly popular for those anglers who wish to be close to the lodge, or are limited in their walking.  All the swims are gravelled, facilitating the erection of a bivvy, without the mud!  Night fishing is permitted all year round.  The beautiful lake was created round about 1990, and was stocked with Carp.  The lake is fenced, and has lockable gates, a key of which is provided to guests.  

Your booking allows you to have your own private lake to fish, for the duration of your stay!  Fishing for two anglers is included.   (One additional angler may be added to your booking, and is priced at  £35pp per 24hrs).   Whether you choose to fish or not,  for many, just to be at the waterside is a pleasure!  There is a private parking area, located immediately outside the lodge, reserved for our guests only.  Sorry, we do not allow any vans/trucks at the venue.
