  • Simple site with grass pitches a five-minute drive from Bromyard
  • Hereford and Ludlow half an hour’s drive; Worcester 35 minutes
  • Fly-fishing lake; café open seven days a week; dog-friendly site
If you’re looking for a spot that will keep the entire family happy – whether they’re into fishing, hiking or fine dining – please consider Kingfisher Trout Lake Camping. This long-established family-run site with spacious grass pitches sits a five-minute drive from the town of Bromyard, in rural Herefordshire. Unsurprisingly, the big news here is the presence of a gorgeously landscaped lake that’s just the ticket for a spot of fly fishing. What’s more, should your long-suffering partner wonder what the big attraction of angling is, they might be able to finally find out thanks to an on-site tutor who can show them the basics of casting. Even if they’re not hooked (geddit?), they get to experience the beauty of the lake and its residents, which include kingfishers, ducks and dragonflies. Please remember to keep your dog on a lead when wandering along the water’s edge. In terms of amenities, the site is on the basic side: there is a toilet block and facilities for ice-pack freezing, chemical disposal and recycling. There is, however, a rather handy café that’s open daily (until 3pm), where you might be able to sample full English breakfasts, light lunches and homemade cakes, plus a range of hot and cold drinks. Those who are after a more sophisticated dining experience head to Ludlow (half an hour’s drive), in Shropshire, which is renowned for its Michelin-starred restaurants and gastropubs.

What customers say

Peaceful, pretty spot with lake views & friendly hosts. Guests loved the relaxed vibe, good value & tasty cafe food (especially brekkie). Basic but neat facilities, easy to get to. Great for a quiet country escape. Minor points: basic amenities & road noise. Many keen to come back!

Unpowered grass and earth site

Liked It's one of the cleanest lakes I have seen for a fishery. Beautiful maintained grounds, very peaceful, and I felt at peace.
Met a lovely local family that came for one night. The place is a nice little hidden gem tucked away, to escape the grind of everyday life. 2 nights was just right for me.

Owners very helpful.

Disliked A bit regimented with where you can pitch. Overall, it ended up well with me having a better view of the lakes.

A little noise from neighbouring field/road.

Unpowered grass and earth site

Liked Gorgeous setting. More facilities for the price than most: drinking water, elsan point, toilet, cafe. Friendly people. Laid back. Entertaining robot grass mower that never stopped!

Disliked All areas had a "very slight" slope. Cafe didn't open till 10am, so never got the breakfast!

Unpowered grass and earth site

Liked So peaceful. Had a resident dog that used to do visits to us several times a day. She was so friendly and made me laugh . I’m sure she thought she was park monitor and hope that someone had a spare sausage 🤣
Will definitely be going back.

Disliked On a slight slope so if busy and you have to park facing outwards or inwards you may need chocks. It was quiet for our stay so we parked sideways on and didn’t need them.

Local attractions

The Time Machine (five minutes’ drive), in Bromyard, ought to appeal to all fans of ‘Doctor Who’, whether their favourite Doctor is Tom Baker or Ncuti Gatwa. Displays include Daleks, Cybermen and original costumes from the popular TV series, plus puppets from ‘Thunderbirds’ and ‘Star Wars’-related exhibits. A lively city full of independent shops and cafés, Hereford (half an hour) is known for its splendid cathedral, which houses the Mappa Mundi and a rare example of a chained library dating from the 17th century. The half-timbered Black and White House Museum displays a collection of Jacobean-era items. The cathedral in Worcester (35 minutes) is also well worth a visit, with its colourful stained-glass windows and the tomb of the 13th-century Plantagenet ruler King John. After the cathedral, take a short stroll along the River Severn to the Museum of Royal Worcester, where you can admire exquisite locally produced porcelain.
