I’m blogging this because this week we have already taken 3 last minute bookings for carp fishing holidays starting , yes you guessed it, this weekend!
One of the calls began with the sentence;
“I don’t expect for a minute but… have you anywhere available this weekend?”
… and to be fair that’s pretty much the belief of all but our regular customers. I guess people don’t really expect that holidays can be sorted that quickly.
But believe me, if you are ready to fish then we have a lake you can fish!
That’s because with 35 lakes and last minute cancellations (which unfortunately do happen) we can usually still offer you a great choice of venues to hit your wish list.
Our record late booking so far is taking a booking 3 hours before the ferry was due to depart at Dover. Organising everything from scratch and getting all the info and directions over within 30 minutes so he could catch the ferry.
So , if you’re ready and set to go… we definitely are!
Here’s the feedback from one recent last minute booker;

Hello Bridget,
I just wanted to drop you a quick email to thank you and your team for arranging our last minute booking to Common Lake.
You really did save our fishing holiday and we had a fantastic week, in fact in over 25 years of carp fishing it was the best fishing we have experienced in either the UK or France.
Thanks once again and hopefully we will be booking with you again in the future.
Best wishes,
Ian Penny.
