Further Details

The River- The banks of the River Lugg and we have 300 yards of them, are designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest. Fifty species of birds have been seen including buzzard (daily), kingfisher, green sandpiper and dipper. Dragon flies and rabbits abound and you may be lucky to see an otter.

Trout, barbell, chub and grayling have been caught and we make no charge to guests for fishing from the banks. You may launch your own canoe from our banks or from a public platform by the river bridge.
