Dairy House Home Beat

West Stafford Dorset

West Stafford is a quintessentially English Village located just downstream of Dorchester in the heart of Thomas Hardy country.  Criss-crossed with old water meadow systems and of course the famous river Frome, this is one of southern England’s finest chalk stream fisheries.

This is Chalk Stream paradise.  With a central fishing hut, this is a great beat to fish with friends, the fishing hut is next to a pretty bridge pool with plenty of room to relax and enjoy lunch with a glass of wine.

This beat makes up over a mile and a half of exciting and challenging fishing, a haven of perfect chalk stream conditions surrounded by stunning scenery.

A great variation of fishing, riffles, pools, plenty of glides and overhanging trees, great sight fishing in crystal clear water.

This fishing is for totally wild fish and has never been stocked, so far this season our visiting rods have enjoyed catching wild Brown Trout to over three pounds and huge Grayling to over four pounds!
