smufter Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Just wanted to know if anybody on the forum had ever fished here before?? http://www.theretreatlake.com/index.htm Looks idyllic for what I want. £895.00 for a weeks exclusive use, including the Gite. Works out just on £225.00 each for the four of us. Has anybody got any 1st hand experience please? Cheers Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smufter Posted April 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Oh well, I bit the bullet and booked it anyway! Reviews well, couldn't find a bad word about it anywhere I looked. If anybody fancies joining me for a week (from Saturday 27th June) give me a shout. Might have a place (or two) free. £225.00 for a weeks fishing in nice looking accommodation (I don't do drive/survive!)....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mactabilis Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 Hey Smufter, I haven't been there unfortunately, booked up for this year already but this is on my list of possibilities for next year. I couldn't find much info either but the place looks really nice. I would be going with two mates who have dabbled with the odd bit of carp fishing on small runs waters in the UK in the past. Any chance you could post a bit about the place when your back? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smufter Posted June 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 (edited) Hiya Mac My initial post didn't make it clear, but I have actually booked this lake for 2015 (I too have this years venue sorted). If you fancy coming along give me a shout as I will have spare places. My mate (who I am going with this year) doesn't think he will be able to make it next year, and my daughter is not 100% sure either so I could be advertising for people anyway!! I have booked the lake with the Gite accommodation by the way, and this sleeps up to 6. My booked week is from Saturday 27th June and if next year is anything like this, they will be over their spawning by then, Rob (Billy no mates) Edited June 25, 2014 by smufter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was on the list of possible places I came up with. I will let you know in a few weeks hopefully what the outcome is. I know the dates can be a bit of an issue as one of my mates is one of the Met's finest and he has issues booking time off of work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smufter Posted September 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Anybody fancy this for £200.00?? My best mate can't make it next year. I have my daughter going along, as well as my Missus and another mate who makes my bait. So there is one fishing spot available. Would just need to contribute a bit to the ferry costs (not expensive) and fuel/toll charges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
