Fishing is included in the price of your stay. If you would like to rent a rod, please ask at the time of booking. Each rod is £20.00 for the duration of your stay, 4 rods can be on the river at any one time. There are 11 pools on the 2 mile beat, each having its own place where fish love to lie.

Pools from East to West are as followings:

Otterstone
A great sunny spot for Otters to chew their catch which are still seen on the river regularly. Please be careful when wading here as the pool shelves quickly.

Woodruff Pool
A challenge to fish but with a little bit of cunning holds some great summer sea trout

The Shelf
Great Salmon lie but be careful when wading!

Jean's Pool
One of the most rewarding pools to fish, situated outside the cabin. Why not watch the sea trout move into the shallows at dusk sitting in the "Hollow Log"

Fairy Table
Another challenge to fish but can be rewarding off the top of rock with stealth.

The Deep
