Glamping Beside a 40 Peg Coarse Lake in North Yorkshire

Glamping bell tents, a holiday cottage and six caravan pitches on 55 acres at Little Fencote, between the A1 and A19. The 40 peg coarse lake holds carp over 20lb with ide, chub and barbel, has level platforms for disabled anglers, and a bait and tackle shop is on site. Wooden lodges are planned but not yet open.

Our take

A friendly day ticket lake with bell tents, not lodges, for now. Stonebridge is a 40 peg coarse fishery first, with carp over 20lb, chub to 8lb plus and level platforms that make it one of the more accessible waters in the area. The stay is glamping bell tents with fishing included, a holiday cottage or a caravan pitch. The wooden lodges on the site are not yet open, so anyone after a lodge should wait.

Good for

  • Disabled anglers wanting level platforms
  • Anglers happy in a bell tent
  • Caravanners who want to fish

Think twice if

  • You want a lodge: the wooden lodges are not yet open for rentals
  • You want to night fish: it is not allowed
  • You have children under 8: they are not allowed in the glamping

Book the glamping for fishing included

Bell tent stays include fishing. Children aged 8 to 13 cost £5 extra, and over 14s are booked as adults.
