 Located amongst beautiful South Wales surroundings and overlooked by the mountain of Cefn Drum, White Springs offers first class day ticket fishing and holiday accommodation on six lakes catering for everyone from match anglers to big carp specialists. White Springs holds the Welsh carp record with a 41 lb 6 oz giant from the Specimen Lake caught back in July 2004, and the complex record stands at a mighty 44 lb 8 oz.There are six apartments offering flexible accommodation ranging from single apartments through to apartments which sleep seven. All have their own bathroom, living room and kitchen with one apartment specially tailored to disabled visitors.  In addition there is a timber fishing lodge next to Specimen Lake which is also available for rental, plus plenty of room for camping and visiting touring caravans with electric hook ups, toilet, shower and laundry facilities. Access is good, White Springs being just three miles from the M4 motorwayOn the main complex there is a comfortable bar and a games room, whilst the bed and breakfast accommodation for visitors is supplemented by all-day breakfasts. For anglers on the complex the local pizza, Chinese and Indian restaurants will even in the village of Pontarddulais will deliver to the lake, and we even announce the arrival of your food on the tannoy. How’s that for service! An onsite tackle shop open 8:30am to 6pm is stocked with everything from rods and reels to clothing, terminal tackle and baits – plus fresh maggots as well as worms, pellets, boilies, tinned baits and groundbaits. Despite being a fairly large fishery, White Springs hasn't lost that personal touch. Owner Vince Lloyd and his family are always on hand to offer help and advice on matters as wide ranging as the fishing to telling about the local places of interest worth visiting. Their commitment to providing a friendly and helpful service is one of the many reasons why so many anglers and their families return to White Springs year after year and why local anglers from as far away as Cardiff become regulars at the venue.
