General Maintenance

With the lakes closed for the winter period it has proven to be a good opportunity to carry out various maintenance tasks. This has included:

Angler’s Cabin

The interior of the Angler’s Cabin has been redecorated with a new colour scheme and the exterior has also been repainted.

Angler’s Rod Shed

Those booked in an Apartment and requiring fishing, enjoy the exclusive use of the Angler’s Rod shed for storing wet clothes, tackle and bait. The old fridge/freezer has now been replaced by more appropriate appliances:

  • A fridge for storing live baits including maggots, worms, etc.

  • A freezer for storing frozen baits including, squid, frozen boilies, etc.

  • A fridge for storing only the Angler’s food and drinks
