Self Drive

At Cretelakes we offer not only all inclusive package but an option to drive yourself to the venue too. This may suit some people that prefer to take the journey at their own pace.

​

On self drive you must arrive ready to enter the venue at 8-30 am on a Saturday morning or the draw will be made without you.

You will be met by one of the bailiffs who will show you where to park.

After a brief talk from the head bailif a draw for pegs takes place. Each party is given a draw number before your departure. When you arrive all the numbered balls go into a bag and the bailiff will draw the balls out. When your number is drawn out of the bag you and your party members can choose where to fish. 

If your party is more than four anglers you will be split into separate parties of no more than four,

i.e. a group of six anglers would be split into two parties of three, or four and two, whatever you choose.

Food

The onsite bailiff is in charge of all the catering. If you have any special dietary requirements, then the bailiff will see that this need is met.

We offer a full English breakfast and a cooked meal every evening. Tea and coffee is available, free of charge, during meal times.

This is served in the onsite dining area.

We also stock bottled water, milk, soft drinks, bottled lager, and confectioneries for you to purchase at any time.

​

Bait

There is bait available to purchase on site. The Cretelakes specials are very popular and

are supplied from a trusted source, they are designed to maximise the chances of landing some of the Cretelakes whackers.

The fish treat these baits as a natural food source and are rotated on a regular basis. These boilies are available to purchase on site from the bailiff during meal times.

A typical angler would use between 15-20 kg of boilies per week.

These baits can also be pre-ordered prior to your trip.

• 10kg  18mm    - £90

• 5kg    18mm   - £50
