Since 2014, the Front Lake has been extensively restocked from some of the UK's most highly-regarded fish farms. It also benefits from a larger stock than the Back Lake. These young hand-picked carp are thriving and packing on the pounds at a rate of knots! Plenty have broken the 20lb barrier and a hanful are 30lb plus, however the size of the fish is really immaterial, as being hand-picked, they are all truly stunning. To back-up these beauties, the Front Lake also boasts a number of 'originals', with at least one over 30lb.
Fractionally under two-acres, the Front Lake has two islands and nine swims, covering three banks. This leaves a bank with no swims, where the carp love to patrol. Again, to allow for any sense of overcrowding, this lake operates a strict six-angler limit, although the 'Big Social' swim can comfortably accommodate three anglers with its picnic bench and BBQ - making it perfect for carp-fishing get-togethers. Opportunities to fish next to a friend can be found on the other two banks. Additionally, some single swims offer the lone angler peace and quiet. The Front Lake can be exclusively booked and is perfect for a small group of friends wanting a lake to themselves.
