ABOUT US
'Tunnel Barn Farm is the Midlands' premier fishery offering day tickets for pleasure fishermen, daily competitions for match anglers and hosting club many club matching all year round.
Located in the picturesque village of Shrewley in the heart of the Warwickshire countryside, our fishery is made up of 9 unique pools.
We have been open to the public for over 20 years and stocks tens of thousands of fish including many varieties of carp, chub, tench, bream, roach and perch. Each pool ranges in size and style and there are over 300 pegs to choose from. Each peg has been designed to give anglers something to fish to. There are a number of designated disabled pegs, and for those that require assistance reaching their pegs, a member of staff is always on hand to help. You can park behind the majority of our pegs making it easy to get setup.
Our onsite tackle shop stocks virtually all types of bait and tackle. For example, we have poles starting from £30, landing nets with handles from £10 and keepnets from £20. Advice on how to fish the complex is always available from the guys in the shop. For more information on the tackle shop please call 01926 842188 and our staff will be pleased to assist you.
We also have an excellent Café and clubhouse onsite providing either a cooked breakfast or takeaway breakfast sandwiches that can be delivered to your peg. We can also cater for end of match buffets, just give us a ring to discuss your club's requirements.
We pride ourselves on being one of the top angling venues in the country and regularly attract big matches such as Fish-O-Mania qualifiers, Maver Match This qualifiers, Garbolino Club Angler of The Year qualifiers and the annual Daiwa Pole Fishing Masters.
We have also held corporate events for a number of companies including: Ibstock Brick, Cromwell, Argos, Severn Trent, the RAF, MOD, the Fire Service and the Royal Navy.
We hold our own Winter League which is attended by some of the top anglers in the Midlands including England internationals.
This league is extremely popular and sells out within weeks of the dates being announced.
We are able to cater for any size of a match from a knock up with a few mates to corporate days of more than 200 anglers.
We have a range of on-site accommodation consisting of 2 country log cabins, our Fisherman's Rest, Carp Cottage, new PODs as well as caravans. From a one night stay to long-stay fishing holidays, we cater for large groups as well as single occupancy. You can find more details on our accommodation page HERE.
