Fishing holidays offer fishing enthusiasts the opportunity to leave their daily worries behind to enjoy days upon end coarse fishing around our large fishing lakes, whilst drinking in the surrounding wildlife and tranquillity.

Here at Cofton Country Holidays we are fortunate to have five large lakes which have attracted fishing fans throughout the year.  Surrounded by gentle Devon countryside and peppered with a number of cosy pubs – the lakes are one of the many reasons that people book their coarse fishing holiday with Cofton.

Luscombe and Trusham Lakes are our specimen carp lakes and it is not unusual to catch a nice large fish.  Our largest carp to date has weighed in at a massive 28lbs.  Our three other lakes: Mamhead, Powderham and Ashcombe Pools are teaming with carp (however, they tend to be smaller in these lakes, weighing up to 9lbs).

Whilst Dad spends the day fishing, the rest of the family enjoy many of the woodland walks, onsite facilities such as the swimming pool which is open in the summer months, fresh food from one of our local pubs; or even a spot of shopping, followed by a lunch in the heart of Exeter City Centre which is a mere 20 minute drive away from the peaceful surroundings of Cofton.
