Private Fishing Lodges With Guests-Only Lakes in East Yorkshire
Three log cabins on Willow Waters Lake and a lodge on Middle Lake near Pocklington, with private fishing for guests only and no day tickets. Both lakes were restocked in March 2020 and February 2023.

A small, private, family run Wolds fishery with only four places to stay. Three log cabins share Willow Waters Lake and a fourth lodge sits on Middle Lake, and only staying guests fish. Kingfisher is the largest cabin, with three bedrooms for six. The venue does not publish species or weights, so expect a quiet, private coarse fishing break rather than a specimen hunt.
Good for
- Anglers who want guests-only water
- Families: Kingfisher sleeps six
- A quiet base near Pocklington and the Wolds
Think twice if
- You want published fish sizes: the venue does not list them
- You need a hot tub or dog-friendly stay confirmed: not listed
