OVERVIEW
Lac de Lumiere is a natural limestone spring-fed lake of around 5 acres and is set in the peaceful French countryside of France’s famous wine region of the Loire Valley.
The lake has four swims (3 doubles and 1 single) with depths averaging from 2 meters down to 6 meters in places.
The lake can accommodate 3 to 4 anglers and with the swims located in close proximity, we feel this makes Lac de Lumiere an ideal venue for a ‘social’ carp fishing holiday.
FISH STOCK
The lake has a stock of around 200 fish up to 60lb in weight, consisting of Common, Mirror and grass carp.
FACILITIES & FOOD
There is a lakeside cabin which consists of a kitchen area with a gas oven/hob, fridge/freezer, all cooking utensils, crockery and cutlery, BBQ, table and 4 chairs. It also has UK sockets along with USB charging points for mobile phones, bait boats and other small electrical items. In addition, there is an outdoor seating area that overlooks the fishery lake.
The main lodge is approximately 5 minutes away from the lake and can sleep 4 people and has a fully functioning kitchen, dining area, shower and toilet. The Lac de Lumiere Lodge overlooks the fishing lake and is a few minutes away from the lakeside. A peaceful and perfect location away from the rest of the world, the lodge has everything you’ll need for your carp angling holiday in France , including: Two-twin bedrooms; gas hob and electric oven; fridge and freezer; toilet; shower; crockery, cooking pots and pans; kettle and filter coffee machine; dining table; electrical points with UK adapters available; external BBQ; and fresh water.
