Long river beats with strong trout and grayling potential for private or commercial use.
About 4,697 metres of single and double-bank fishing on River Irfon
Lot 13 offers about 4,697 metres of single and double-bank fishing on the River Irfon, set within the Cefnllysgwynne Estate just over three miles from Builth Wells. The stretch includes a variety of pools, runs and glides that have historically produced good numbers of trout and grayling, with the occasional salmon in autumn. The river has been run on a day-ticket, catch-and-release basis and presents clear scope to retain for private family use or to commercialise further.
The riverbanks will benefit from selective clearing to open access to the best pools; an incoming purchaser could invest modestly to improve beats, access and parking to increase visitor appeal. The fishing is currently lightly managed and partly let to visiting anglers, so immediate income continuation or expansion is possible. Rights and sporting titles transfer with the freehold where owned, subject to existing agreements.
Buyers should note environmental and access constraints: the River Irfon is designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), and parts of the wider estate fall within flood zones 2 and 3. Prospective purchasers are advised to seek independent advice on any SSSI-related restrictions, fisheries management permissions and flood implications for works or commercial activity.
This lot suits sporting buyers, angling operators or investors looking to add high-quality river fishing to a wider estate portfolio. It is offered freehold and can form part of a larger purchase of the Cefnllysgwynne Estate or be acquired independently, subject to the estate’s lotting and retained cross-rights for access and services.
