Welcome to White House on Wye Glamping. Our farm offers over a mile of fishing on the river wye along with glamping onsite for accommodation perfectly situated next to the river.
Our beat of the Wye offers some fantastic private fishing for barbel, chub, roach, dace, pike, grayling, trout and salmon. The mile stretch has a variety of features with deeper slower moving sections and a pebble beach which is perfect for trout, barbel and smaller fish. There is also a croy that puts fishermen in a prime position in the deeper waters where the fast-flowing water moves over bigger fish.
The glamping site has five cosy tipis that are fully kitted out with everything you need. Whether you’re coming in a group, alone or with the family, having the glamping on site is great for the perfect fishing glamping experience.
Our site is a big upgrade from just standard camping. It’s time to leave the tents at home, ditch camping with fishing and come glamping instead!
The river wye offers a unique fishing experience unlike anywhere else in the UK. The Wye Valley is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty making for some fantastic scenery for your holiday. Our site is just outside of Ross-on-Wye in Herefordshire.
The mile stretch of private Wye River fishing on offer starts with the upstream being deep and slow before speeding up in the downstream sections.
You can book a River Wye day ticket fishing through the Wye and Usk foundation for your stay.
The most common course fish caught here are barbel and chub, the fish caught here are of really good quality and good condition.
The River Wye is very clean meaning the water here is clear so it allows sun rays to beam through which give the barbel and chub a lovely gold colouring to them which in other waters they may be pretty pale.
It’s one of the better barbel swims on the Wye. While it is popular it is not overcrowded as it’s limited to the Wye and Usk. Our location is great for Wye barbel fishing holidays with some superb fighting barbel available.
Although the White House stretch is primarily coarse fishing, under the right conditions fly fishing is good too. There is a nice pebble beach which is good for casting off.
There is salmon in the early season depending on the run and you’ll often see salmon jumping out of the water in the evening in a golden flash. It’s not known as a trout stretch but if you get one it will be a big one.
The River Wye starts in mid Wales in Plynlimon and flows South through the Wye Valley, ending at the Severn estuary in Chepstow. It follows the border between Wales and England for much of its length. Notable areas that it flows through include Llangurig, Rhayader, Builth Wales, Hay-on-Wye, Hereford, Ross-on-Wye, Monmouth and Chepstow
The source of the River Wye is in the Welsh mountains at Plynlimon and it’s mouth is at the Severn estuary near Chepstow.
The River Wye is 215 kilometres (134 miles) long and is the 5th largest river in the UK.
¨We had such a magical time! The tipi was beautiful, and we loved cooking dinner outside in the beautiful fields, then getting up after a great nights sleep and going for a wild swim in the River. We went canoeing down the Wye, and it was wonderful! The best staycation! Couldn’t recommend enough¨
