Marton Heath Trout Pools

Down a farm lane outside Macclesfield, Marton Heath's trout pools glint among open Cheshire fields, the kind of place where an afternoon slips by almost unnoticed. Its glowing local following speaks of well-stocked, well-tended water and the sort of welcome that turns newcomers into regulars. It is ideal for a patient beginner finding their cast or a seasoned angler chasing a fighting rainbow, all under big rural skies with hardly a rooftop in sight. Bring a flask, take your time, and let the countryside do the rest.

A highly rated, genuinely rural fishery where the quality of the fishing and the setting make it worth the drive — and worth telling friends about.
