This fishing peg sits right on the water near Buckland, a traditional Cotswold village in the north of the region.
If you're an angler, Peg 12 is a designated fishing point within a larger fishery where you can settle in for a peaceful day by the water, listening to birdsong and watching the wildlife. It's all about angling here—the kind of quiet, unhurried session that appeals to anyone who enjoys spending time at the waterside.
Buckland itself is worth exploring between or after your fishing. The village has characteristic stone cottages and Buckland Manor, which reflects centuries of local history. The fishing peg doesn't have much of its own story beyond its purpose, but the village around it embodies the quiet continuity of rural life that defines this part of the Cotswolds.
You'll need to bring your tackle and obtain a day ticket or permit, usually available on site or through nearby facilities for the fishery. Once you've finished fishing, it's easy to wander around the village's cottages or venture to Broadway, just a short drive away, where you'll find pubs, restaurants, and shops. Stow-on-the-Wold and Moreton-in-Marsh are also within easy reach if you want to explore the wider area.
