The Bess of Hardwick Angling Club

The Bess of Hardwick Angling Club manages and fishes the Row Ponds which are situated in the beautiful parkland of Hardwick Hall at Doe Lea. This 400 year old stately one-time home of the Cavendish family is situated between Tibshelf and Pleasley in one direction, and Mansfield and Chesterfield in the other. The nearest junction on the M1 is J29 and the Hall is only 3 miles to the south. The estate is well maintained in the style that typifies the age of the first Elizabethan era during which it was established, and is the most stunning backdrop you could wish for to practice our chosen sport.
