Glehias Rules

As animal and nature lovers, we have some rules created to ensure that the lakes and surrounding countryside remains a safe and pleasant environment for everybody to enjoy, and also to protect the health and condition of our fish. Please take the time to read the rules and make sure you understand them beforehand, we are happy to answer any questions you may have if anything is unclear.

A refundable security deposit of €150 is required on arrival. This will be returned upon departure, providing there has been no damage and the venue has been left in good order.

Please note that we will be happy to greet our guests on arrival after 14:00 and expect them to depart by 10:00.

If you or a member of your party experiences any issues during your holiday, please report them immediately to the venue owner/bailiff and to Angling Lines. This allows us the opportunity to resolve the matter while you are still at the lake, in line with our holiday Terms & Conditions.

La Gléhias will accept no responsibility for injury to visitors or loss, damage or theft of their property. 

We feel we are not asking a lot to maintain the high quality of fishing, and do hope you enjoy your stay at La Gléhias.
