The Course Lake, and the Pleasure Lake, fishing for every level of expertise. If you are a beginner then lessons can be arranged, or try one of our 'have a go' days.

Girls weekend

Roo1 Hertfordshire
Review Submitted: May 26, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Just arived back from my second stay at this lovely property in the pretty village of Cavendish. Last time there were seven ladies on a hen weekend, this property served as the perfect base for our day at the races (Newmarket only 40 minutes down the road) and 'hen archery' at Foxearth Leisure.
This time (girls weekend again) we spent time at Kentwell Hall (well worth a visit), shopping in Bury St Edmunds and generally enjoying the sunshine in this quaint part of the countryside. We spent an enjoyable evening at The Bull Inn where they just happened to have an Australia evening... For those of us not brave enough to sample the kangaroo steak there were other options and overall the food and service were great.
The property itself was very clean and well stocked with cutlery, crockery etc. Everything you need to make it a real home from home!
The owner Cathy was extremely helpful and welcoming and was able to give lots of tips about places to visit. Will definitely be returning!!

A good sized property, accurately described. Good location. Spotlessly clean and well maintained. Everything you need for a self-catering break. Lots of nearby pubs and restaurants. Beautiful village. Very friendly locals. The owner was very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Made to feel very welcome. Would highly recommend.
