Trawling the net for a top fishing site where you can spend your next holiday? Sort yourself a break at Clay Farm, a rural spot in Clows Top, Worcestershire with pretty waterside views and a handful of well-maintained pitches next to its ponds. This spacious place has a relaxed feel, so it’s a pleasant option for settling in – and chilling out – in the countryside, even when you’re not angling. But if you are? There’s a large 12-foot deep pool filled with common, mirror, crucian and grass carp weighing up to 25lbs, with lots of tree cover for when shelter is needed. Clay Farm's small carp pool is excellent for younger fishing fans looking to dip their toe in the sport, and there’s another pond containing tench, roach, bream and chub.​ (Fishing comes at an extra charge, payable on site.) In terms of amenities, Clay Farm is towards the simpler end of the scale, with well-maintained toilets but no on-site shower facilities. And as for off-site attractions? Head to the Wyre Forest National Nature Reserve (five minutes’ drive) to stretch your legs, or peer at the exotic creatures at West Midland Safari Park (20 minutes).

Local attractions

Wyre Forest National Nature Reserve (five minutes' drive) is as good a place as any to kick off your Worcestershire break. Mountain biking, horseback riding, dog walking and refreshments at the forest's very popular café are all good options, as is heading to Go Ape Wyre Forest (10 minutes) to cavort around in the canopy on its tree-top adventure trails. Further family-friendly days out are easily accessible, whether you opt for a drive-through safari at West Midland Safari Park (20 minutes), an educational visit to Ironbridge Gorge (45 minutes) and Blists Hill Victorian Town (45 minutes) or fancy rewarding your kids' good behaviour with a trip to meet Thomas the Tank Engine at Drayton Manor Theme Park (an hour and 10 minutes). More peaceful days out beckon at Witley Court and Gardens (15 minutes), a lavish Italianate mansion surrounded by well-tended parkland. For less manicured green space, head instead to the untamed natural landscapes of the Shropshire Hills (35 minutes), an area of outstanding natural beauty with near-endless potential for country rambles and scrambles.
