About Vale End Lakes

Vale End has four acres of landscaped stillwater and stream fishing at the foot of Belmont Wood, made up of Belmont Lake and Mill Lake. The lakes are fed by the River Tillingbourne, and the estate describes an abundance of natural fly life, especially olives, buzzers and sedge and a very healthy mayfly hatch, which makes it a good dry fly water. Alder and crack willow give shade and cover.
