Beausoleil is a quiet secluded lake set in the gentle rolling countryside of the Bretagne region of Northwest France, about one and a half hours drive from the port of St.Malo.

The fishing for carp and catfish is second to none.

You and your party (maximum 4 people) will have exclusive use of the private lake and house, and once you have closed the gates it really is a different world.

The estate type lake itself is set in 6 acres of lovely managed grounds and boasts a fantastic variety of wildlife including kingfishers and red squirrels which abound on the island and around the lake itself.

The 4 acre lake has depths from 2-6 feet with the shallows being spanned by a wooden footbridge over to the shady tree covered island.

Beausoleil contains an impressive stocking of Carp from 15 lbs to over 40 lbs, including at least 30 Carp over the 30lb barrier.

There are also 40 large Catfish from 25lbs to over 80 lbs, plus Grass Carp to 32lbs and 4 Sturgeon to 22lbs.

In December 2009 the lake was professionally netted and the vast majority of the small carp below 15lbs and catfish below 25lbs were removed. There are no bream, poisson chat or crayfish in the lake.

With a swim right in front of the house and others all around the lake it provides the perfect place for you and your party to fish in comfort, or if necessary move to where the fish are showing. The shallows at the top end of the lake are the ideal place for a little early morning or late evening stalking or fishing off the top.

There can be no doubt why this lovely lake continues to capture the hearts of many anglers and their families because they just keep coming back year after year. Once you have seen it you too will realise why.
