Samuel and Caroline Travis bought Middle Lane Farm, Kingston Seymour in 1920, it was then passed down through the generations and in 1982 William took over the running of the suckler herd. 


Over these 100 years the farm has seen many changes, however in 1994 with the farming industry becoming ever more difficult, the family made the tough decision to diversify the farm.   


 The Lakes were dug in the field called Plantations which is where the name originates from. Initially two fishing lakes were created. One for Coarse fishing and another for Carp fishing, subsequently in 2001 a third lake for matches was dug. 


 Over the past 28 years the lakes have thrived and matured, now looking like they have always been there. Having natural beauty, they have become a very successful fishing venue in North Somerset.
