General Comments:

The venue is perfect and would recommend it to anybody especially if it’s your first time in France. The owner / bailiff Rick is also a great host and one of life’s true gentlemen. He was on hand and more than willing to offer help and advice in all ways from bait to rigs and location, he knows his lake inside out and will go out his way to ensure you have a good holiday and catch plenty of fish. After many years match fishing I have took to carp fishing and Rick spent hours showing & explaining lots of things which will stay with me in my carp fishing not just on this trip.

Within 10 hours of my return to the UK I booked to go next year! In a nutshell - great venue, great bailiff, great time.

Fantastic weeks fishing on a lovely lake in a brilliant location. Fish were all pristine condition, hard fighters, and a great variation.
