Carp Fishing at Le Moulin de Boutineau: There is a glorious, private 2.5 acre lake where you can fish for carp (mirror & common 15-40 lbs plus) and some large tench. It has level, easy walking access around the entire perimeter which is lined with a wide variety of mature trees, flowers and the abundant wildlife includes kingfishers and red squirrels. It is an idyllic, tranquil setting for carp fishing. There are five marked swims (max. 4 anglers) plus an accessible island, and we also have a range of standard carp fishing equipment for hire as well as a selection of quality baits available. Our beautiful, pristine fish will give you quite a fight, but are of course, just for catching, photographing and releasing again!

Cost of Carp Fishing during the whole season from March to November is 150 euros per angler per week or 50 euros per day. You must be staying here to carp fish on the lake, making it all a great combination of value, comfort, accessibility and privacy. It is possible to carp fish the lake exclusively, but only by booking the Fisherman's cottage for 2-4 anglers during the early/late periods of March-May and September-November. Ask for details.

As a guest of this cottage, you'll find a spa tub, a terrace, and barbecue grills. WiFi is free in public spaces.
