On the lakeside of the mighty Orellana Lake in Spain lies this beautiful house with a large private saltwater swimming pool, 4 bedrooms, a large living room, a large kitchen, a covered terrace and a bathroom with double showers, suitable for up to 8 people. The view of the water from the terrace is phenomenal. The house is at least 20 meters from the water depending on the water level, but as the bay is relatively unobstructed, fishing can easily be done from the house. The lake itself extends over 5000 hectares and is crystal clear. In some areas the water can be up to 40 meters deep, but in the bay in front of the house the depth is limited to a maximum of about 12 meters.
In addition to a healthy carp population (known to weigh up to 37 kilos), mainly powerful common carp and beautifully scaled mirror carp, the lake is also home to a large population of zander, black bass and pike. The Comizo barbel and American river catfish can also be found, albeit in smaller numbers. The lake is rich in crayfish which provide plenty of food for the carp, so using plastic bait or wrapping your boilies is highly recommended in the warmer months.
This beautiful location is accessed via a typical Spanish sandy road with its associated bumps and potholes. Orellana can be a little busier at weekends as there are more locals out and about.

The Orellana Reservoir
If you walk down your driveway you will arrive at the lake itself where you can also swim very well. The lake is the only Spanish inland water that has the “blue flag”. And is one of the cleanest European waters. This means that the water is very clean and clear. Because it is a reservoir, there are also many different depths to be found, even right in front of your own house up to 15 meters deep. In terms of fishing you can fish here for carp, black bass, pike, zander, American catfish. It is possible to rent fishing equipment. Please contact us for this. We do, however, advise you to bring your own mills and bite sounders at all times. If you come this way by car, then extra lead is certainly not a luxury. There are also many crawfish in the water. For this reason, an extra supply of heat shrink tubing is definitely recommended. Night fishing is not permitted. There is a night fishing zone on Orellana and we can arrange a boat transport for you.
Area
The Orellana reservoir in the province of Extremadura is the last of the three major reservoirs that control the level of the Guadiana River (seen from where it enters Extremadura) and lies between the La Serena and Vegas Altas del Guadiana regions. The still waters of the reservoir dominate in the landscape, flanked by medium-high mountains (Sierra de Pela, 724 m., Sierra del Castillo, 697 m.) That protrude above the large surfaces. In the village of Orellana la Vieja, close to the house, you can learn Spanish culture or go to the nice bars and restaurants in the evening. There are also restaurants in the harbor and various activities are held here in the summer months. A supermarket can be reached within 15 minutes by car. In Orellana la Vieja there is also a market every Saturday with all kinds of delicious local vegetables and fruits. The grilled chicken is a must to buy!
