Welcome to Trois Fontaine
After three years spent visiting France we have finally found our dream lake. Jon the owner and bailiff had a wish list that contained all the requirements for the ideal carp fishing venue and we have found it. Our lakes are set among the rolling hills and vineyards of the Champagne region of France.
The lake is home to various wildlife, buzzards glide on the thermals, deer go down to drink and we have a pair of kingfishers who dive looking for breakfast outside our windows.
Our bird table is visited by robins, wrens, blue and cole tits among others. Woodpeckers live in the trees by the swims and you can hear them tapping every day. A pair of herons take up the same position each morning along the bank and wade up and down fishing. We have had glimpses of red squirrels and birds of prey perch on our drive gates.
For peaceful surroundings, a natural environment and good fishing Trois Fontaine is the perfect venue for your French fishing holiday.
Trois Fontaine consists of two lakes which are new to the market this year and are now available for booking.
The largest lake is an ancient estate type lake with overhanging trees, reed lined and with various lily pads.
Trois Fontaine we know is recorded as being in existence in 1833 but was originally created by the local monks centuries ago to breed carp for the table as were many of the best lakes in France. If you can find your way through the woods you can still see the ruined monastery that owned Trois Fontaine
The tranquility and peace of the lake that comes with ancient waters and protected woodland has to be experienced to be appreciated.
The carp are virgin fish as the lake has never been fished on a commercial basis, or by the previous French owners and the smaller landscaped lake of 2 plus acres was built over 30 years ago.
