 Leven Park Lake...

is a four and a half acre lake set in an 8 acre former gravel quarry on the south side of the village. Extensive landscaping has been carried out creating a quiet and picturesque setting, being completely surrounded by trees which is developing into a wildlife habitat.

 

 

 

There is a footpath all around the lake, and more than 40 pegs have been dug out and furnished.

 

Resident kingfishers can be seen on the lake, together with the occasional heron that drop in for a free meal. There is a bird feeding centre to attract the song birds, also bat, owl and tit boxes have been set up in various trees.

 

 

The lake is well stocked with many species of fish both native and foreign, including Carp up to 28lb, Bream up to 11lb, Roach & Rudd to 2 1/2lb, with various other species including Barbel and Chub and Ide. 

 

The facility has ample parking and full toilet facilities, and work is ongoing to make this one of the most attractive and prolific fishing venues in the area, including plans to provide extensive disabled facilities.

 

The latest addition to the park are two log holiday cabins, set on the edge of the lake. Each log cabin offers gas central heating, fitted kitchen with gas cooker, microwave, washer and fridge, one double and one twin bedroom and a bathroom with both bath and shower.

 

The lounge includes a colour TV and DVD and comfortable furnishings with patio doors offering a charming view over the lake.

   

Surrounded by trees and grassed areas, the cabins each have a barbecue area and two private fishing pegs, with lock up for fishing gear and a bait fridge.
