Unique Experience

An amazingly tranquil setting, conveniently situated in the Midlands Meander. The house had everything you could ask for and more - even heated beds! Feeding time on the farm was a truly unique experience as well.

Fantastic Stay

We had the most incredible stay at Copperleigh Trout Farm, this was more than we expected. Everything was exceptional from the awesome trout fishing, the majestic scenery, beautifully appointed log cabin and the fantastic hospitality received.
