Absolutely fantastic holiday from start to finish, we didn't want to leave.
This was our first family fishing trip in France and it did not disappoint.
Lionel and Véronique are literally the best and kindest people you could ever meet. They will go above and beyond to meet any needs you may have.
Lionel is also a very experienced fisherman and knows the lake inside out. He will have alot of tips for anyone needing them.
We enjoyed it that much we have booked up for next year within days of returning home, for 2 weeks.
The countryside surrounding the venue are breathtaking.
There are many local supermarkets, bakeries and restaurants within minutes.
We can't wait to return next year! We all had the most amazing holiday and made memories to last a lifetime.
Can't thank Lionel and Véronique enough!!
