Bake Lakes - The Old Luggage Van and The Travelling Post Office are only 2 miles from these excellent fishing lakes which offer fly and coarse fish. It is hard to imagine a better place to stay. Transport to and from the lakes is available.

There are seven lakes set in 30 picturesque acres at Bake Fishing Lakes. Located just off the A38 at Trerulefoot in the beautiful Cornish countryside near Looe. There are 5 lakes offering general coarse fishing, a specimen coarse lake and one large trout lake 5 acres in area.
This is 'Troutmaster Water', with superb fishing for specimen rainbow and brown trout in quiet rural surroundings, easily accessable, where all are made to feel welcome with a friendly helpful chat and a 'cuppa'. Open from 8am until dusk all year. Bake Lakes have a qualified instructor Robert Tetley who has many years experience of both fly and coarse fishing, with his amiable manner & professional instruction on hand if required, he can instruct from the novice to the advanced level.
