The Russell Lakes Complex
Estate Waters
Discover Russell Lakes — a private fishing retreat set within 40 acres of peaceful countryside, offering traditional angling in one of the South East’s most beautiful rural settings.
Located within easy reach of London, the fishery feels a world away from busy modern life. Surrounded by quiet lanes, woodland walks, traditional country pubs and unspoilt scenery, Russell Lakes offers members the chance to slow down and reconnect with a quieter pace of life rarely found so close to the city.
Designed as a mature mixed fishery, the lakes provide a varied and natural environment with depths ranging from shallow margins to deeper pockets and features, encouraging thoughtful fishing and a slower pace on the bank.
At the heart of the complex sits a large wildlife-rich island surrounded by reeds, lilies and natural cover, creating a calm and unspoilt setting throughout the seasons. Whether arriving for a short evening session or spending several days by the water, Russell Lakes is a place to switch off, unwind and enjoy time in nature.
