Peak Open Water Sports - South Elmham Lakes

Set within the peaceful surroundings of Old Hall Farm on the Norfolk–Suffolk border, this premier fly fishing and wild swimming venue offers a calm and naturally beautiful escape. Surrounded by wildflower meadow and open countryside, the setting feels secluded, unspoilt and deeply connected to the landscape.

The site features three clear, spring-fed lakes, creating a clean and refreshing environment that is particularly well suited to open water swimming. The natural water quality and tranquil surroundings make it an appealing choice for those looking to enjoy a more immersive, back-to-nature experience.

In addition, a dedicated one-acre lake is available for private swimming, offering a more exclusive and uninterrupted space for individuals or small groups. This allows swimmers to enjoy the water at their own pace, away from busier shared environments.

Combining carefully maintained natural spaces with a quiet, rural setting, this venue offers more than just a place to swim – it’s a considered and peaceful destination where open water swimming can be enjoyed alongside the beauty of the surrounding countryside.
