Arundell Arms - Where The Fishing Life Born

Arundell Arms Hotel, Lifton, Devon, England

This old coach inn has been one of England's premier fishing hotels for more than half a century, with 20 miles of its own fish-rich water on the Tamar Ricer and five of its tributaries that are home to wild brown trout, sea trout, and salmon. With the gorgeous natural surroundings, excellent cuisine, and top-notch accommodations in an area of Old England where timeless rhythms rule and country customs are honored, the Arundell Arms is a standout among a vanishing breed of well-heeled sporting hotel.





Within a mile or so of the hotel, all these rivers join the Tamar, one of the best salmon rivers in England. Do book in advance and fish alone all day, where salmon average 10 pounds and your day's catch will be tonight's dinner. Those who does not have any experience on fishing, beginners' courses are available and those who are interested for advance skills in fishing, advanced courses are available as well by a former Welsh Open Fly-fishing Champion. This is where the Arundell Arms is famous as a real fisherman's hotel.
