I have no idea if they will accept large groups but i see no reason why not, the bloke that owns it is a really nice chap so i'm sure he wouldn't have a problem, but ring up and see what they say.

 

If you are allowed it's a lovely campsite with shower facilities and everything, nicely maintained and about 4 minutes walk to the lakes, not even a minute to drive. Lovely place to fish, not like some overstocked puddles, you could easily be fooled into thinking it is completely natural.

 

It comprises of two fairly shallow lakes (Deepest part is about 6-7 ft, most parts it's about 5 feet), both with islands, the left lake offers large lily patches, overhanging trees, reed beds etc, while the right lake is more open with just the island and a few reeds. Lots of wildlife to be seen as well as loads of other stuff to do in the area. The lakes contain bream to a few pounds, tench to 8lb (Not many tench), roach, rudd, perch, carp to 25lb and the odd chub and pike.

 

I'm only saying all this because i've fished it for 6 years and i love it, you can get large bags of silverfish and lovely hard fighting carp. If you come in the summer try free lining dog biscuit or bread crust in open patches in the lilies.

 

It's a great place, i love it :)

As famous fisherman John Gierach once said "I used to like fishing because I thought it had some larger significance. Now I like fishing because it's the one thing I can think of that probably doesn't."
