Yes, being a pre napolionic private estate you are allowed to night fish.

No, pre napolionic private waters like this are exempt from rod licence requirement.

Overall the estate covers 65 acres, which consists of a mixture of ancient woodland, pastures and lakes.

Brittany mill lakes have held carp for many years, it was established as a carp fishery in the year 2000 and opened to carp anglers in the spring of 2001

We are unable to accomodate pets.

Yes, check our prices page.

Lake Lezay has 5 large double wooden decked swims available but we only allow 8 anglers maximum. Lake Cadouzan has 4 large double wooden decked swims and one single wooden decked swim, 8 anglers maximum. Mill lake has 10 wooden decked swims three being doubles 8 anglers maximum.

There are no poisson chat at all thankfully, there are a few crayfish in mill lake only but they are so few that they never bother your baits and are not a problem.

For those using the all inclusive air travel holidays we supply three carbon rods for use at zero cost if required, marker rods are available on request but you must supply your own reel.

No, we do not allow the use of your own landing net for fear of the spread of disease, we supply a 42" one and have some 50" ones for catfish.

We do not allow any sacking of carp. We do not allow any sack to be brought onto our complex and if you break this rule you will be asked to leave immediately.

Yes of course. We supply quality JRC pods with three rod front buzzer bar and three rod "U" shape rear rests for your use. These are perfect for our decked swims, but there is no problem if you want to use an alternative setup.

Children are the future of angling and if they are keen on fishing we like to encourage them, however the danger of being near water is obvious so you must sign an agreement that states that you are responsible for their health and safety at all times.

no it is strictly a 3 rod limit.

Yes. We realize that bait boats are a controversial subject therefore we just ask that you use them sensibly and remain within the invisible boundaries of your swim.

We provide you with a cool box and ice packs are available from the freezer daily.

Yes there are points at the dining area for your use. 24/7

Fishing is on lake Cadouzan and lake lezay at the moment, we are doing some major works on mill lake during this winter but will not open it until 2008

You cannot pick up British tv and French tv operates on a different system, so UK tvs don't work here.

We do not allow shelf life boilies (popups may be used).We conducted a series of tests with six different manufacturers shelf life baits and were horrified at the results.

Do your own experiment place a shelf life boilie or 2 in a clear jar of water and leave for a few weeks or more then examine your results.

We found that they did not breakdown but went mouldy and stank.

We also done the same with mainline freezer baits and found that they breakdown after a week or so.

There is also scientific evidence that carp that feed solely on shelf life baits as their main food source result in poor growth and health (George Hide M.sc B.Sc.(Hons.)Lecturer sparsholt college)

We want you to catch our carp in pristine condition and in top health.

This is also reflected in our pellet diet fed to the carp.

We sought out the best possible complete carp pellet diet that we could find, it is designed as an overall balanced feed especially for carp, our stock are thriving on it and continuing to make good weight gains and maintaining perfect health.

We keep a large stock of mainline freezer bait and some particles on site so you may purchase what you need whilst you are here, no need to pre order. see bait page

Barbless hooks have been the cause of much mouth damage. we now allow barbed hooks only for the welfare of our carp. see videos page to be added shortly.

Plastic and rubber baits have been banned because when line breakage occurs the baits remain in the lake until another fish comes along and eats it, which can result in dead fish. Our carp prefer to eat real food.

Most of us enjoy drinking in moderation and indeed we give you a complementary bottle of beer or a glass of wine with your meal, and we stock beer and wine for purchase and give you cool boxes and ice packs to keep your beer cold, but Brittany Mill Lakes is not the sort of place for the lads to have a week long loud drunken beano,

If you do become very drunk we will ask you to reel in your lines and not fish again until sober, we put the welfare of our fish first and we make no exceptions
