Lake District Fishing Lakes With Lodges & Accommodation
The Lake District is one of my favourite places to go on a fishing holiday. Having grown up in the north of England we were regular visitors to the lakes. I still like to go back when I can and have stayed at a couple of the places mentioned on this page. I’m also hoping to stay at even more!

Fishing at Borwick Lakes
- 4 well-stocked coarse fishing lakes
- Specimen carp and pike fisheries
- On-site tackle shop and cafe
The site has 4 lakes to choose from and the website states there are carp up to 25lb. After checking some reviews the size cannot be verified by any photos. There look to be lots of good action on smaller carp an some mid to upper doubles. In my opinion, 25lb is possible form this venue although it looks better for some last action – A great place for a family fishing holiday.

The site’s website shows some catches of good upper double-figure carp and a nice mix of commons and mirrors. It is also reportedly good for pike fishing in the winter months with pike up to 30lb.

Accommodation
At High Thorn Park you’ll find a choice of accommodation. The one that caught our eye was the Duck Hut situated right on the bank of the main lake. The lodge has 2 bedrooms and a bathroom and a small kitchen area and looks charming. It has its own peg in front of the lodge. You will also find cottages and camping spots on the site.
Fishing at High Thorn Farm
After taking the time to review the information High Thorn Farm looks like a good lake to fish for carp. From the photos, I would except them to grow to lower doubles as a maximum. The carp are a strain of wild carp similar to Brayton Park that do not grow massive, they are a long and lean English strain rather than the heavier European mixed strains.
