If you are looking for luxury accommodation in a picturesque setting and good fishing in France, all yours for the full duration of your holiday - then Your very own private country estate with fishing lake, woodland walks, private swimming pool and comfortable villa style accommodation sleeping 6.
Carp fishing or sport fishing in France all nestled within 15 acres of private woodland, and located in the warm sunny Charente region of France.
We offer the perfect holiday location for complete rest and relaxation in secluded settings, you can have a family fishing holiday, or a french gite holiday with something for everyone.
The family can relax on sun loungers around the pool, or explore the woods and the streams, all whilst you are enjoying the sport of pulling out Roach and Tench by the dozen, or waiting for the sound of the buzzer, telling you that one of the many Carp is about to give you a run for your money.
If you like a lake that consists of shallows, deep areas, overhanging trees, and lots of places for Carp to hide, you will enjoy the natural fishing experience.
Recent fishing has produced Common Carp, Mirror Carp (up to 30lb), Perch, Roach and Tench.
We are situated on the outskirts of the sleepy village of Ambernac, and only a 5 minute drive to the historic medieval town of Confolens, which is situated on the beautiful River Vienne.
The villa style property lies in its own grounds of 15 acres, surrounded by garden and woodlands, with no other buildings in site. There is plenty of space for children to play or enjoy the swimming pool, and you can spend as much time as you like fishing.

Location and Fishing Information
Exclusive Carp Lake & Villa Fishing In France - Although the property is in an isolated setting, surrounded by trees, fields and hills you are still within easy reach of shops and the main roads.
The property is located in the region of Poitou Charente and is approx 400 miles south of Calais.
The village of Ambernac is near the town of Confolens which is around 45 minutes drive
from Limoges airport, and approx 1 hour from Poitiers. This is a really unspoilt part of France with some superb countryside.
The nearest large towns are Confolens and Angouleme. Anglouleme is the larger of the two towns but both have all the amenities you require, you also have a Casino (supermarket) in Ansac which is a 5 kilometres drive from the property. Directions for the supermarket will be sent to you, following your final payment and there will also be directions in the Villa – there is nothing worse than trying to find the local supermarket in a foreign country after a long journey!
Driving time from Calais is around 6.5 hours depending on how fast you drive! You can also go to Le Havre or St Malo which is a shorter driving time but the ferry journey is longer.
The drive is very easy, and if you choose to can be done on motorway roads virtually all the way. If you have not driven in France before dont panic!
The roads are far less congested than in the UK and very easy to drive on. However, I would suggest that you keep away from Paris in the rush hour, as this can get very busy.
Common and Mirror Carp to 32lb.
Perch caught to 3.5lb so far.
Roach, Eels.

"Les Gravelles was absolutely wonderful." “We have gone to a different lake and house every year for the past 5years and by far and a way Les Gravelles was the best accommodation and the best Fishing."15th September - 22nd September
20th October onwards
Steven May ~ United Kingdom "We had an absolutely wonderful time at your holiday home and I'm sure we will return again." “The region and everything about our trip was perfect, even though the fishing was hard, we still manged to catch some decent fish, but really that was only half the reason we came to France. The pace of life was just what we needed. All in all each and everyone of us had a wonderful time, and we would also like to thank Ray & Irene for being very welcoming and being wonderful guides to the surrounding area."
