Fontburn Reservoir is one of the smaller waters and consequently has a reputation as being a friendly, family orientated fishery.

It is located within easy reach of Tyneside and offers top class fishing for fly and bait anglers alike. Many of Fontburn’s trout are stocked from an on site fish farm. Fontburn is suitable for disabled anglers.

On site there is an excellent lodge shop stocked with everything you need for a days fishing including rods, reels, tackle, accessories, clothing, worms, bait, ice creams and refreshments including hot and cold drinks. Environment Agency rod licenses are also on sale at this fishery.

For non-anglers, there is a stunning circular walk and a spacious picnicking area for you to relax at.
