Fishing

The two mile beat on the River Eamont offers an excellent fly fishing opportunity for both the experienced or tyro fisherman (or woman!) in pursuit of wild trout. The location is unsurpassed; beautiful water in stunning surroundings with only a passing kingfisher for company. Residents enjoy a preferential daily rate and beginners should have no worries as skilled tuition is available by prior arrangement.

Beside the river is the ancient church of Ninekirks (St. Ninian’s) dating back to the 13th century and restored by the Lady Anne Clifford in 1660. Only accessible on foot it is well worth a visit; a small number of services are held during the summer months.

Shooting

Shooting parties are most welcome. Secure storage and drying facilities available.
