The Lakes

Of the twelve Lakes on the Park nine are exclusively for use of the Holiday Home owners, with each swim designated for the sole use of the corresponding Lodge or Caravan owner. Two of the Lakes, Heartsmere and Kingfisher Pool, are Day Ticket Lakes; and Marsh Lake has a mix of Day Ticket swims and designated owners swims.

Ash Tree Lake

A tree lined lake with seven Holiday Homes. Ash Tree Lake has depths up to 12ft, has a good mix of quality fish, including Tench, Bream and Crucian Carp, and a large head of Carp between 6lb and 18lb.

Blackthorn Lake

A two acre lake with twenty two Holiday Homes. A good mixed fishery lake with a known Crucian Carp of near 5lb and a large head of Carp 24lb plus.

Dragonfly Lake

With six Lodges on the west shore, this two acre lake is undoubtedly the most famous on the park. A large head of 20lb plus Carp up to 34lb are supplemented by a good number of sizable Tench, Crucian Carp and Mirror Carp which are being caught at an average weight of 18lb.

Elm Tree Lake

Having two channels through from Dragonfly Lake, this two acre lake benefits from its sharing of the above stock. There are seven Holiday Homes on this Lake, two with large plots which are set back from the lake front.

Guelder Lake

This three acre lake has six caravan plots on the north shore and two designated swims from the small promontory on the east bank. All species can be caught here, however it’s probably best known for its good head of Carp up to 34lb, quite a few of which are wily old, scaly Mirrors.
