Trafalgar Fisheries was among the first trout farms in the country. Their trout swim in the clear, fresh waters of the Hampshire Avon, which constitutes a major part of the famous Longford Estate. It’s in an area of outstanding natural beauty and is overlooked by the 16th century Longford Castle.
The Avon flows through a series of natural gravel ponds in an environment perfectly suited to trout farming. To further this ideal, the trout are stocked at low densities and the oxygen levels of the water are monitored continuously by a loyal and highly professional staff, many of whom have been with the business since it began almost 40 years ago.
The marriage of their experience and a wonderful location, which attracts a great number of birds and other wildlife, has seen Trafalgar maintain its place at the forefront of trout farming with a commitment to environment protection.
