Booking a lodge with a hot tub in Derbyshire gives anglers the chance to enjoy some spectacular English countryside while tackling an exciting variety of freshwater fish.
Located in the East Midlands region of England, Derbyshire is renowned for its diverse fishing venues, including rivers, lakes, reservoirs and canals, making it a popular holiday spot for anglers of all skill levels. A number of lodges also offer fishing on-site in their own private fishing lakes.
The River Derwent, flows through Derbyshire, offering the chance to test your fly fishing and coarse fishing skills. It’s well-stocked with trout and grayling, so if you’re into fly fishing, this is a good location to go for.
Coarse fishing enthusiasts are also well catered for in Derbyshire & the Peak District thanks to its well-maintained stillwater fisheries. Here you’ll be able to catch carp, pike, perch, roach and bream. Many of these fisheries offer day ticket options, allowing visitors to enjoy a day of fishing without the need for a long-term membership.
The reservoirs in the region are also popular with anglers. A drive out to Carsington Water and Ladybower Reservoir hosts a range of fish species and the scenery here is breathtaking!
A log cabin, cottage or glamping hut in this area makes for the perfect base for a fishing trip, giving guests plenty of space and privacy to unwind and relax. Anyone in your group or family not interested in fishing can soak in the hot tub and enjoy the luxury facilities and countryside setting.
