Exclusive Carp Lake With a Luxury Cabin and Carp Over 60lb

A glass-fronted, two bedroom cabin that comes with sole use of The Avenue, an RH Fisheries lake that was previously syndicate only. With two fish over 64lb and more than 70 over 40lb, it is one of the biggest-fish carp lodges in Shropshire.

Our take

A once-syndicate big-carp lake you can book for a week, with a proper cabin on the bank. The numbers are the reason to go: over 200 fish, two over 64lb, 15 over 50lb and more than 70 over 40lb, with a lake record of 65lb 2oz. The cabin is built to a high standard, with two en-suite bedrooms and a glass front facing south over the water. It is priced for a dedicated carp trip, not a family holiday.

Good for

  • Carp anglers targeting a fifty or sixty
  • A group of friends sharing an exclusive week
  • Anglers who want comfort after long sessions

Think twice if

  • You want a short break: bookings are Saturday to Saturday weeks only
  • You like to choose your own bait: only RH Baits may be used

Bring no bait, budget for RH Baits

The fishery allows RH Baits only on The Avenue, so factor bait into the cost of the week rather than bringing your own.

What a Stay at RH Fisheries Lodges Is Like

The Avenue is one of the RH Fisheries lakes in Shropshire, and until the cabin opened it was an exclusive syndicate water. Booking the cabin now gets you the lake for the week, with the cabin set in what the fishery calls a prolific area of the lake.

The cabin has two bedrooms, each with an en-suite, and an open plan kitchen, dining room and lounge behind a south facing glass front, so the water is in view from the sofa. The fishery describes it as built with no expense spared.

RH Fisheries runs several other waters, including Monument 1 and 2, The Mere, Acton Burnell, Weston Park and The Sitch, and The Avenue is about 15 minutes from the Monument complex.
