Parkland
This new specimen Carp lake has been stocked with beautiful Common and Mirror Carp up to 26lbs. The main head weighing between 17lbs and 22lbs. The 4.2 acre lake offers the perfect environment for the Carp to develop over the next 24 months.
It is slightly further away from the other lakes so it’s very peaceful and a lovely place to fish. The lake was built deep for the original plan to stock trout and has two feature islands.
Lake Location
Parkland Lake is the first one you see after coming through the main iron gates onto the Eye Kettleby Lakes Holiday Park. It is access by heading towards the Southern Meadows touring park and railway bridge.
Railway Bridge
