BEWL WATER is widely renowned as one of England’s finest and most attractive trout fisheries. Boat fishing on much of the lake’s 770 acres from the fleet of 54 well-maintained boats – all of which are equipped with 4hp outboard motors. Bank fishing is accessible on more than half of the lake’s 17-mile shoreline.  Disabled access for boat anglers is made easier with a modern wheelchair accessible ’Wheelyboat’.

Bewl Water Country Park’s beautiful Wealden surroundings and intricate shape appeal both to those who like the intimacy of secluded and sheltered bays, and to those who appreciate the huge expanses and panoramic views experienced only on the larger stillwater fisheries.

The Lodge stocks a wide range of flies and tackle, waterproof clothing and wellies, and is open 7 days per week from 0830hrs to 1715hrs during the season which starts on 21st March.
