Fishing at Tucking Mill Reservoir

Our inclusive reservoir is a peaceful, accessible space designed especially for visitors with disabilities to enjoy, completely free of charge.

About Tucking Mill Reservoir

Just two miles south of Bath, the reservoir is located between Monkton Combe and Midford.

The site’s woodland surroundings create an idyllic environment for fishing.

There are 14 swims on site, including several specially designed wheelchair-accessible platforms, which are large enough for two wheelchairs. Each angler can bring one assistant who can fish from the same platform.

The lake is stocked with roach, rudd, carp and tench.
