We normally don’t allow children and it all depends on if we have other guests staying that would be upset by the fact it is an adult only site. As your 4 months baby cannot walk, we may consider if you think there will be minimal noise. At owners discretion.
If you are an experienced fisherman and can monitor him, then that’s fine. We do not want inexperienced people fishing and damaging our fish. Also, if he is well behaved and quiet, that’s good. We have to bear in mind our other guests booking an adultās only site.
Unfortunately no. This is an adultās only site. All of our cabins are situated directly over the lake and we do not feel this is safe for small children.

No, but we do have a dog friendly site just across the road please visit lakesidefishingretreats.co.uk
Yes, all of our payments are through our online booking system.
We only have 8 lodges in total and fishing is exclusive to cabin guests only as we do not allow day tickets. We have found itās very rare that all guests in each cabin are fishing people. This is because our site attracts a lot of bird watchers, couples for a romantic weekend away, retired people who just want to relax and, on some occasions, you may find you have the whole lake to yourself to fish from!
Every cabin has a Fire pit which can be turned into a BBQ by simply placing a grill on top of the Firepit! We also sell log packages for Ā£10 at the Pizza Shed & Bar at Lakeside Fishing Retreats. Or you may wish to bring your own kiln dried logs.
Certainly not! Anyone found mistreating, killing or eating our fish will be asked to leave
immediately without refund.

can use the fridge/freezers. Do not take any bait inside the cabins.
Yes, we also provide towels, toilet roll, hand soap, shower gels, fairy liquid, tea towels, even tea, coffee & sugar.

using one as they are quite busy on just the one line!
