Lakedown Trout Fishery & Tap Room offers a unique blend of scenic fly fishing and local craft beer enjoyment. Nestled in a secluded Wealden valley, the fishery boasts four spring-fed lakes spread across approximately 20 acres. Established in 1981 by Roger Daltrey, the site is celebrated for its picturesque setting and abundant aquatic fly life, making it a prime spot for catching wild browns and rainbow trout.
The Tap Room complements the fishing experience by serving a variety of beers from Lakedown Brewing Co., alongside wine, soft drinks, and locally sourced snacks. The Tap Room is a casual, welcoming spot for anglers and visitors to relax and enjoy the rural tranquility.
Visitors are required to book their fishing tickets in advance, either online or by telephone, and sign in upon arrival. The fishery offers a range of fishing options, with specific rules to ensure sustainable stock management. The Tap Room operates on select days and hours, providing a rustic yet comfortable setting to unwind after a day by the water.
