The Peat Spade
The Peat Spade Inn sits on the banks of the river Test in the heart of the Hampshire countryside, famed for being the fly fishing capital of the world.
The cosy bar and award-winning restaurant welcome both locals and guests from further afield, many of which come to stay in one of the seven luxury bedrooms and to enjoy the outstanding fishing opportunities.
Like the historic roots of fly fishing buried in the chalk of the Test Valley, sport at the Peat Spade runs deep. The rivers and downs surrounding the inn host some of the world's best fishing and shooting. The walls tell the stories of memories made on their doorstep whilst inviting accommodation welcomes weary sportsmen at the end of the adventure with a spot at the bar for tall tales and big appetites.
The Test Valley nestles between the historic cities of Winchester and Salisbury, with the New Forest to the south. The area is characterised by wonderful countryside, picture postcard villages and the River Test famous for being the fly fishing capital of the world.
The Peat Spade is passionate about retaining the heritage and traditions of the countryside and this is reflected throughout the inn from the fresh, seasonal menu to the exceptional sporting opportunities that can be arranged for guests.
Above all, The Peat Spade aims to make its customers feel at home whether popping in for a pint, enjoying an evening of fine food and wine or escaping for a few days away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
