Hi Alex
Fished it a few times.
Last time was a year or so ago when a small group of five of us booked at new year.Arrived to find it already part full up with more arriving.The owner had overbooked and was not going to let his 'locals down by refusing them .
It put a bad cloud on the day and we have never returned and never will again.Beware there are only eight(supposedly) allowed on the main pool and that will leave no spare spaces anywhere.If noone moves you will be stuck in one spot all day-hell
Its ok'sh,small main pool,very small brownie pools.
Its down a steep hill and any rainfall will run off into the lake and colour it up.
imho there are better places to visit.

Thanks for that. Does look quite small. Might give it a miss.

I visited Springhill once last year,can't say I was that impressed

Much prefer Yew Tree near Tonbridge Contents


It's a nice little place has both Browns and 'Bows.
