The Original Cabin

Our Original Log Cabin is as old as Blackthorn Fishery itself, but has had a significant face-lift and upgrade since it was built in 2011. It may be smaller than our newer luxury Lodges, but has an intimate, cosy feel, and a charm all of its own. Its open plan living area looks out onto the lake and is the ideal place to watch a stunning Blackthorn sunset.   The original log cabin has the least amount of water to fish to, but is still a very prolific swim. A south-westerly breeze blows directly into its bay which can make it one of the best pegs in the right conditions.
