Hastingford Fishery

Positiv Second time of staying at Hastingford. It’s not just about the excellent fishing but the whole relaxing ambience of the site. Impeccably maintained lakes, fabulous countryside walks with the dog, well equipped lodge with everything you could possibly want. Attentive and friendly owners and entertaining wildlife.

Positiv The cabin was great piecefull the fishing was good mark was a great host thanks again will be going back to catch the big one

Negativ Fact we had to come home

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you so much for a great review - we look forward to hosting you again soon!!

Positiv We stayed in the Roach Shepards hut, which was over looking the lake. It was spotlessly clean. The owners Geraldine and Mark were very welcoming and friendly. We thought the welcome pack - warm croissants, bread, eggs, juice and milk was great. It was so tranquil sitting on the deck watching the wildlife. We will definitely return as I didn't want to leave.

Negativ Nothing to dislike at all.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you so much for a lovely review. We do try to give our guests a nice experience!! Sharing our special place with appreciative guests makes it all worth while.

Positiv Had a fantastic 5 night stay in the Carp Hut! The hut and private shower room, small walk away, were immaculate; as was the flushable portaloo next to the hut for those caught short moments. The hut is very well kitted out and cosy; I slept really well and I'm 6ft 2"! I had no issue's with WiFi, mobile (EE) connection, and TV reception that were good for all my requirement's.
Everyone at the fishery is absolutely lovely and couldn't have been any more helpful!
Arriving by bicycle, with plan's to circumnavigate the area with rides planned each day that were thwarted by the very strong winds and bad weather, staff helped by providing a lift to get provisions and picking up essentials (chocolate) later in my stay, as the road's were deemed a little unsafe to cycle!
Despite this, the grounds of the fishery provided for a really peaceful stay. The wildlife is amazing, from speaking with the duck's, visit's to the bird feeder from the Woodpecker's and Tit's, and stunning aerial displays's from the Kingfisher's to mention a few!
This place is a gem and I wouldn't hesitate to book; especially for the cyclist's out there. It's a great base for jumping onto numerous route's in the area. But beware there are some hill's and you'll have to put the mile's in! I will definitely consider staying again to tackle those hill's! Lastly, thank you so much again for your hospitality Geraldine, Mark, Hilda and Trish; and a big woof to Jade!!!

Negativ Cafetière/coffee press not big enough for my unhealthy addiction!!!

Vom Platzbetreiber: So pleased you enjoyed your stay, look forward to seeing you again. thank you so much for all the lovely photos and video, I'll be using some! We will ensure you have a larger coffee maker next time!

Positiv Such a lovely place, the second time we stayed at the fishery. Such gorgeous surroundings and the loveliest people running it. Always there to help with anything we needed, not that we needed for much as so much was provided. We will be back for sure! Thanks guys x

Negativ Absolutely nothing!

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you Dana, so nice to have you back!!

Positiv Loved how peaceful and safe it was

Vom Platzbetreiber: very happy you enjoyed your stay, thank you for a great review.

Positiv Everything is as described. The carp hut was soooo cosy and warm and the whole location is very peaceful. You don't hear any vehicles - at all! We received a basket of warm rolls and croissant on arrival which was a nice touch and all the hosts were really helpful and accommodating.

Negativ Nothing really. We will definitely go back again.

Vom Platzbetreiber: So pleased you enjoyed your stay. Thank you.
