A Northumberland pub is offering its guests the chance to catch their own dinner in one of the country's finest game fishing rivers - before enjoying it in front of a roaring log fire.
The Anglers Arms has stood on the banks of the River Coquet at Weldon Bridge in Longframlington, Northumberland, for more than 300 years, and has been a popular resting place for travellers heading to and from Scotland in that time. And the pub also owns the right to fish on a stretch of the river.
Guests staying overnight at the pub or in the adjacent apartment or self-catering holiday cottage, can purchase a day ticket to fish on the north side of the river, provided they have a valid Environment Agency License. They can cast their rods in an attempt to catch brown trout, sea trout and salmon, which chefs at the venue will clean, dress, cook and serve the same night.
