Fourways Fishery

Well-maintained serviced pitches near the village of Epworth
A 20-minute drive to Yorkshire Wildlife Park; 40 mins to Clumber Park
Access to three fishing lakes, including a 2.2-acre specimen lake

If fresh air and fishing are the mainstays of your holiday plans, you’ll be in a good spot at Fourways Fishery, a rural South Yorkshire spot about 10 minutes’ drive from the village of Epworth and half an hour east of Doncaster. There’s plenty of space to relax here, with the park stretching out to 12 acres and a further 18 tree-filled acres just next door. The pitches here are well maintained and well equipped, with water and electric connections along with a picnic table for easy outdoor meals and drinks. A shared toilet block is available but please note there are no showers at this site. There are lots of ways to fill a day or few around here, including riverside walks by the River Trent, trips to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park or outings to various country estates. Local villages of Haxey, Owston Ferry and West Stockwith all have pubs, and are handy places for things like shops and takeaways too. However, the highlight is, of course, the fishing, which takes place at three day-ticket ponds including a 2.2-acre specimen lake. The lakes are all well stocked and peaceful with lovely landscaping all round, so they make an excellent place to while away an afternoon or two. Meanwhile anyone whose attention drifts a little from the lake can head off to meet the site’s alpacas – a herd of six live in a stable in a large fenced area, and they’re available to meet or even sometimes go for a walk with.
