Discover traditional fly fishing at Otby’s six-acre stream-fed lake. All abilities are welcome at the Lincolnshire Wolds lake, which is well-stocked with rainbow and brown trout. Season tickets and day tickets are available as is boat hire.
Otby Lake Boat House is now fully up and running and the response has been amazing. The feedback from guests has been so much more than we ever expected.
This is the best lake I have fished in Lincolnshire. Well conditioned and powerful fish. Caught 11 before midday, things got a bit slower in the afternoon. The owner was very friendly, would highly recommend this venue.
Beautiful lake tucked in a stunning valley. Found this venue while staying at a nearby campsite last summer. Only had a few hours to fish but had three nice rainbows. Owner was friendly and helpful. Only saw one other angler while I was there. Will definitely return.
Tucked away by a picturesque lake, a perfect retreat. Natalie and Frank thought of everything. Accommodation outstanding. Sauna was very relaxing. We took advantage of the hampers offered – delicious. Mornings brought a gentle mist over the water and evenings were spent reflecting on the balcony admiring the sunset. We look forward to returning later in the year.
An incredible stay at an incredible location. You’re immediately blown away from the moment you drive through the gate and then arriving at the boat house is very special. A lake to yourself, sauna and incredible views all make this place somewhere truly special. The attention to detail that Natalie and Frank have poured into the boat house is commendable.
It is hands down the best place I have ever stayed. It was so beautiful and you are well and truly emersed in nature. The amenities were incredible. Natalie the host was fantastic. We have decided to make this our annual treat to ourselves.
This is a special place. Thank you to the owners Natalie & Frank for creating a little gem. The Boat House has everything you need is highly furnished and the added bonus of the Sauna whilst looking out at the lake. The rowing boat is fantastic and we were so lucky with the weather. It was a special birthday and some great memories made. Highly recommend.
We really enjoyed our time at the Boathouse. The setting was so beautiful, we enjoyed watching and listening to the birds on the lake. The boathouse was decorated so nicely. Lovely touches like a welcome pack we didn’t expect. It was so nice sitting in front of the log burner each evening. No phone signal so a great time to unwind. The woodfired sauna was fantastic
