Petit Pretre
Location: The Little Priest (Petit Pretre) carp fishing lakes are situated in the Champagne Ardennes region of France just a 4 hour drive from Calais.
Website : www.petitpretre.com
Description: The lakes date back over 400 years when they were occupied by Monks – hence the name. They are referred to as Cassini lakes since they were first recorded during the reign of Louis XV who commissioned Ceasar-Francois Cassini of the famous cartographer family to produce detailed maps of France which listed Petit Pretre. Today Petit Pretre consists of 3 main lakes plus a small stock lake set in a mature 52 acre woodland setting offering a quiet and secluded location.
Stock: The main lake is about 7.5 acres which was excavated in 2007/08 with over 2 ton of common and mirror carp added weighing in at 30 to 50 lbs. The Gun Lake (our 2nd lake) is 5 acres and is being prepared now to be opened in spring 2010. It will also be stocked with a range of carp weighing to 50 lbs.
Lakes: We can accommodate up to 11 "Drive & Survive" anglers on the 2 lakes making it ideal for exclusive parties of 4, 7 or 11 people. The main lake can accommodate 7 anglers on 11 swims (8 single & 3 double). The Gun Lake can accommodate 4 anglers on 5 swims (3 double & 2 single).
Facilities: We have excellent on-site facilities which include the Club House / Dining Room with recharging points, kitchen which we use for preparing on-site food and the shower / toilet facilities. All cabins are close to each other and the lakes. Lastly, we offer great bait packages for the fish and an excellent full board offering for our guests too – so nobody goes hungry.
