Fishing at The Lake House

The benefit of staying at The Lake House is that you have exclusive use of Roe Lake, which is 7.2 acres in size, for the duration of your visit.

There is a fantastic mix of scaly, mirror, common and ghost carp as well as tench up to 8lbs.

Although the Roe lake is not the easiest, double takes are not unusual. In our first year some of our anglers managed 20-30 fish in a session. Additionally, some guests accomplished personal bests, making their trip even more memorable.

If your a novice angler or have never fished before we do have 4 other on-site lakes and equipment hire is also available. Our friendly staff are always happy to help and offer advice.  Further information on our fishery can be found at www.alvechurchfisheries.co.uk
