One of the quieter fishing spots in the Cotswolds, Peg 10 near Buckland offers a straightforward day by the water with your rod.
It's a designated fishing peg where you can settle in and enjoy proper contemplation, surrounded by countryside and the gentle sounds of nature. The appeal is refreshingly simple: a calm place to fish and unwind, without the crowds you might find elsewhere.
The immediate area doesn't have dramatic historical significance, but that's actually part of its charm. What works well here is the location within the broader Cotswold landscape—a region shaped by traditional villages and old routes that have influenced settlement and travel patterns for centuries. Once you've had your fill of the water, you're well-positioned to explore further afield. Faringdon, the historic market town, sits just a short drive away with its shops and restaurants. Head southwest and you'll reach Lechlade-on-Thames, a pleasant riverside town where you can walk along the water or stop for a pub lunch. Fairford is equally accessible and worth a visit for its remarkable church. So whether you're committing to a full day of fishing or mixing it with exploration of the surrounding area, this spot gives you flexibility and easy access to everything else the Cotswolds has to offer.
