Great care has been taken with the landscaping and water management to provide a relaxing environment balanced with nature.
The lakes have been stocked with 2,200 carp consisting of 70% common and 30% mirror carp imported under MAFF license in 1994 and 1995. These fish have been specially bred for their large fins and strong fighting quality. Just ask anyone who has fished here.
Trolleys are available for transporting tackle around the lakes. Some of the swims have been specially adapted for the disabled and wheelchair access. There are thirty-one swims around the main lake, with eleven of these swims being large enough for two anglers.
There is a shop on site selling tackle, food and refreshments, baits and our own carp pellets. There are also toilet and shower facilities and drinking water.
ImageLodges are available for customers to hire so they can bring there family members or friends along for a holiday in this attractive part of the country. Each lodge can accommodate a maximum of four people.
An island is available to fish from. This is situated within casting distance of the nature reserve. There is room for two anglers. Have fun looking around the site and feel free to contact us should you have questions.
