Description: Raynbow End lake is a natural, tranquil 3 acre lake nestling in 6 acres of private, beautiful woodland. We're located in the historic and charming village of Meautis and are easy to get to from the ferry ports at Cherbourg, Caen and Le Harve. Lake: Although it is not a deep lake (deepest point 5ft) it is fed by underground springs which make it an ideal home for carp. The lake was tested by an independent fishery expert in September 2007 and was found to be in superb condition including PH levels, etc. The lake has a silt bed with gravel and sand margins which again is perfect for carp. All this is reflected in the quality condition and healthiness of our fish! The lake also benefits from fully maintained grounds and totally revamped swims.  Website Address: http://www.thebrownedge.co.uk/alan/Pages/Home/home.htm Location: Location: Basse Normandie, Orne The recently renovated shower block has a toilet and sink, bunk beds to sleep four, a cooker, microwave oven and a fridge-freezer to keep the beer cold!

Barbeque facilities are also on-site and charcoal is available from local shops and supermarkets. Lake: The three-acre lake has everything for the angling connoisseur. It features eight swims for a maximum of five anglers, giving you maximum room for maximum enjoyment. Lake depths are between three and twelve feet Fish Stocked: Carp, Pike, Zander, Tench 
The lake dates back to 1947 and consequently has a good head of original carp. To supplement these fish the owner stocked additional carp in 2002 to a fraction under forty pounds, while several of the seven catfish stocked went over the 40lb mark. So far the lake record stands at 39lb 6oz for a mirror and whilst the average common would be a double, they do run to over 30lb.

Description: Lac du Val is around 4½ acres & set in northern Normandy, less than an hour's drive from the ferry port of Caen. The privacy of the site allows peaceful and tranquil carp fishing in lush rural surroundings for a maximum of five anglers - it is possible to book the lake exclusively. Lake: The lake, which opened as a commercial fishery in 2004, is of the small Estate lake type surrounded by grassy banks, dammed at one end and with two islands providing a natural haven for the carp at the top end. It is fed by a trout stream so the water quality is excellent. The depth varies from 3m at the right hand end of the damn wall, averaging 1.5m in the centre, down to as little as 50cm in the shallows by the islands at the top end. Stock: The current stock is over 200 carp and the largest resident, a magnificent common, goes to 62lb 2oz! The water currently has at least 30+ thirties and 15+ forties and 4 known 50+’s... and this number is increasing all the time. David has stocked the lake himself and has followed a policy of introducing good quality fish in small batches and these have now grown to a very good size. The first batch of carp, stocked in 2000, were all mid to upper doubles and these fish now make up the bulk of the 20's in the water. Since then fish have been added on a regular basis, with a batch of 22 fish added in January 2004 - all these fish were over twenty pounds. In February 2004 a further 24 carp were added - 5 x 30lb, 15 x 20lb, 3 x big doubles and a cracking 43lb common. Finally in October 2005 a 52.04 mirror was stocked.
