Idyllic, Friendly, Consistent Sport.

Having read some of the reviews it was little surprise to me that they are a somewhat mixed. Having worked in Travel and Tourism for over 7 years I know a customers reaction is normally down to there expectations. Different people want different things and you can NEVER please everybody.

In saying that some of the comments are WAY WAY off the mark. I have been visiting Docklow for 3 years and always alone. Now if the staff were unfriendly or there was a certain "Clique" then I certainly would not feel comfortable to go there as a single guy.

This is not your typical commercial fishery where you can catch 100lb at the drop of a hat. This is an established venue with many of the fish from natural stock (Testament to excellent fishery management) and with some good watercraft and advice from the plentifully supplied onsite tackle shop you can enjoy great fishing. The idea of fish missing lips and bait bans not being stuck too is down a anglers NOT adhering to the rules.

Accom, Pub, Food are all Rustic as expected for a country retreat.
