General Comments:

Everything was really good. The owner was very helpful even with the language differences. The Cabin was a brilliant addition and the use of a shower and the introduction of Two fridges and a freezer was excellent. Even the locals who came down to retrieve potatoes from the earth tipped for swim construction next year couldnt of been more freindly. A secret lake that unfortunatly everyone now knows about. Definatley consider this water if you want to go to France for a social and some excellent fishing.

General Comments:

We didn't fish off the spit as the water levels were up. We fished the bay next to the hut, we would like to see the swims cut and levelled. All in all it was excellent. We plan to return in 2 years, by which time if they continue to grow as they are ther will be some whackers to try for.
