From my visit
It's a working trout fishery, so the water is naturally darker and murkier than a clear loch.
The setting itself is beautiful, quiet, peaceful, with plenty of greenery and wildflowers along the banks.
Once you're at the fishery, it's signposted, though you'll need to keep an eye out as you go. It's about a 10 minute walk from the car park, following the path around the pond, tucked into the trees. Just keep to the path and you'll spot it.
