Welcome to Darwell Reservoir

Darwell Reservoir is a beautiful and serene body of water located in East Sussex, England. The reservoir is situated in the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, surrounded by rolling hills and lush greenery. The reservoir was built in the 1930s to provide water to the surrounding towns and villages, and it continues to serve this purpose today. The reservoir is also a popular spot for fishing, birdwatching, and hiking.

The reservoir covers an area of approximately 50 acres and has a maximum depth of 20 meters. The water is crystal clear and supports a variety of aquatic life, including trout, pike, and perch.
