Barbret Lake is an intimate pool with waterside accommodation that sleeps 4 with some seriously big carp to over 60lbs. It is the ideal venue for combining carp fishing with a family holiday, due to the excellent facilities and activities which are on site. It is also ideal for taking a partner or just 2 or 3 anglers looking for a week’s carp fishing.
Due to the size of the carp, anglers must have experience in handling large carp.
