If you require to fish and spend a holiday at the same time then Kingfisher Lodge is for you. You will have your own stocked Carp and Silver fish lake alongside your lodge. Lodge has been made with comfort in mind. Only down side you have to approach the Ponds down the usual small Devon road can be hairy at times with tractors. But well worth a visit!

A lovely location for a short break. Cottage is right on the lakeside, ideal for relaxing views. Loved seeing the Heron and Ducks, and the Carp in the lake. Cottage is comfortable and well equipped.
