The weather / temperature dropped dramatically on our arrival. 1 angler fished the 4 days and nights for 4 runs and only 3 fish landed. 29lb mirror, 26-4 and 18-8 commons and lost one

After fishing for 35 years the best tactics are to listen to the owner who is there week in week out throughout the year. I fished to spots Barry advised and had a take from each one at least once.
Barry supplies his own bait , this is a recognised food source in the lake and the fish seem to love it, even in the cold conditions I experienced

The facilities were as advertised , the lodge is amazing. We had a 15 week old baby and the log burner and the lodge ensured she was nice and warm in a nice clean environment.
Really enjoyed our stay at Barringtons. Barry and Yvonne are a lovely couple who we spent time with whilst we were there. So helpful and friendly and we wish them all the best for the future

I would recommend Barringtons to my friends,
the food package was excellent and Yvonne is a great cook. Well worth having in our opinion
Angling Lines are great, so very helpful and really nice people

Use Barry's Bait, have the food deal, listen to Barry's advise on fishing the lake, treat Barry and Yvonne with respect and they will look after you.

Thank you so much really enjoyed our 4 days in your company at your stunning lake

Considering the conditions and water level, this was a good week, hosts were very welcoming and the food package was out of this world!!
