Experienced Hosting and Personal Service
With more than 30 years’ experience hosting corporate events and hospitality days, the fishery has welcomed many clients who return year after year. Every event is shaped around the requirements of the group, with careful attention given to service, organisation and the overall guest experience.
Tailored Event Packages
A complete corporate event package can be arranged to include exclusive use of the fishery, first class friendly tuition and ghillie support throughout the day and catering tailored to your preferences.
- Exclusive use of the entire fishery
- Friendly tuition and ghillie service throughout the day
- Catering options, from breakfast on arrival and riverside picnics to a three-course lunch, cream tea and evening refreshments
- Refreshments available throughout the day

Equipment and Guest Support
All rods and tackle can be provided, together with a suitable selection of flies. Environment Agency rod licences can also be purchased on behalf of your guests.
Cast and Blast
How about something a bit different and experience a distinctive countryside experience.
Begin the day with a warm bacon roll and fresh coffee before meeting your shooting instructors and fishing ghillies. The morning is spent clay pigeon shooting, with all equipment provided and expert guidance throughout. No previous experience is needed, as each guest will receive a full safety briefing and one-to-one support during their session. Refreshments will be available while guests wait their turn.
A three-course lunch is then served at the main Fishing Cabin beside the river, followed by an afternoon of fly fishing with exclusive use of our trout beats. For those who wish to stay a little longer, fishing may continue until dusk.
Pricing and Enquiries
Corporate event prices vary according to individual requirements. Because the fishery is privately owned, packages remain highly competitive, without the additional cost of renting water from a third party.

Thanks again for another excellent day's fishing. The attention of your support staff, especially the ghillie, and the quality of your fishing, food and surroundings makes the day one of our most pleasant corporate events. But more importantly, it has over the years become a firm favourite with our major customers, who are already enquiring about next year's date. Well done again!
Whilst I expected you to provide the location, the equipment and the catering, I hadn't realised that you could arrange such fantastic sport and glorious weather! What a day we had! I have already had calls from all of our guests complimenting us (and you) on a marvellous event. The day exceeded all my expectations and was entirely due to the efforts of you and your staff. I shall recommend the renewal of this annual fixture.
I would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to the ghillies for a truly wonderful day. Everything ran like clockwork, the food was delicious and you all ensured we had every opportunity to relax and catch some fish. The fact that most people actually did catch some fish was the icing on the cake. We had very positive feedback from everyone who attended. In fact one of the party, who lives in New York, has returned for his fourth annual fishing day and this is a true reflection of how highly everyone regards the day.
Thank you and your staff for a superb day. We all shared the view that the quality of the organisation of the day, the food and staff was extremely high and I know that our clients will have found the day both memorable and enjoyable. We will definitely repeat the booking next year.
