Lac du Villefond is a tree lined lake surrounded by open fields set in Very quiet countryside with fenced lined private grounds down a little-used country road. It allows for you to relax at your own private lake enjoying sport from some of the best quality carp fishing France has to offer.
Lac du Villefond is a mature 8 acre carp lake, and has been a fishery since the 1930’s; in 2008/09 it has been open to the public. It has access all the way around, with 7 purpose built swims including one double. There are over hanging trees and shrubs ideal for stalking and great to fish too. There is a tree lined island reachable from most swims and plenty of snag free open water. The bottom is hard clay with minimal silt. The fish are fed on our high protein pellet all through the winter so the fish have many months of un-pressured feeding. To ensure a high nutritional value in the bait used we do require all pellet to be bought on site this is primarily to ensure the fish grow at a consistent rate and remain fit AND healthy as well as hard fighting. The pellet used has been the Fish's main food source since they were stocked in the lake and the catch results using this pellet are best described as prolific. This pellet can be paid for when booking the lake or on an AS AND WHEN needed policy once you have arrived.
On site there is a small car park and facilities include a 6 berth caravan with plenty of seating, kitchen, cooker, and small fridge. A hut with shower , English toilet, wash basin is situated next to the caravan.There is access to battery charging by generator and bins are provided at each swim also a row Boat is available to use. We supply un-hooking mats and landing nets which we require you use to prevent the transfer of disease and to ensure the health of our fish. The bailiff will be contactable to offer advice or help with any problems.
At the end of the road there is a restaurant/bar and the lake is a 15 minute drive from either Bressuire or Parthenay the two main towns. Local shops including a bakers are a 5 minute drive away.
The lake is an easy motor way drive straight down from Calais in just over 5 hours or 3 hour drive from St Malo.
