In carp angling terms we are a 'Fly and Survive' or 'Drive and Survive', a new venue for 2007 with excellent facilities.
 

Our 4 acre lake is situated in an attractive setting. Surrounded on all sides by trees and with a well maintained grass bank on one side, level with the water's edge, ideal for fishing from.

 

The lake was stocked 3 times during the winter of 2006/2007. In total 50 Carp over 20lb were introduced, including several 30'sand one fish over 40lb. The new carp have gained weight rapidly and we now have several 40's and numerous 30's. We also have some catfish in the lake, the biggest is now well over 50lb and we have others not far behind in weight. The lake is also home to about 150 Original Carp, these are mainly double-figure fish with some 20's, but there could be some surprises.

We offer a recently refurbished apartment contained in the main house and above our own accommodation, right on the edge of the lake. Total privacy is maintained as access is by way of an external stairway with small viewing balcony. Decorated to a high standard the self contained apartment boasts brand new kitchen and bathroom.

THREE BEAUTIFUL SELF-CATERING GITES SITUATED IN A WORLD HERITAGE SITE IN THE DORDOGNE.

 

The Dordogne in SW France is steeped in history, stunningly beautiful, essentially rural and lives life at a slower pace than most. Perigord has been a magnet to visitors and invaders alike for centuries.

 

La Rosiere is situated in the enchanting Vezere Valley, whose caves hold the greatest concentration of prehistoric art on this planet.

 

The gites are close to Les Eyzies in an UNESCO World Heritage site, located in a tranquil valley called the Combe de la Faye (Valley of the Fairies).

 

We are at the end of an isolated track (with 16 acres of private land) and no immediate neighbours or passing traffic but are still within close proximity for the many and varied local attractions, shops, restaurants and markets. Stunning historic towns and bastides such as Sarlat, Rocamadour and Monpazier are close by and the chateaux and the smaller towns and villages of this fascinating region will not disappoint you. Not to mention the delights of the highly distinctive cuisine and wine.

 

As well as the archaeological treasures of the area to marvel at, they is much else to see and do. You can be as energetic or as relaxed as you choose. For the active, you can walk, cycle, ride horses, paddle canoes, play tennis, swim in the pools and rivers, walk in the trees ... the more relaxed can take leisure flights in microlites and hot air balloons, visit gardens, museums, markets, towns and villages. And on and on - there is no shortage of entertainment.

 

But, if you are coming to unwind and to watch the world go by, to sit by the pool in the sunshine with a good book and a glass of two of chilled white wine, you can do that too. The Dordogne can be all things to all men, women and children - the big problem is to choose. And a word of warning - many people who come here simply to enjoy a holiday, are so impressed with the region and the way of life that they sometimes end up living here. So be warned!

Golden Oak LakeGOLDEN OAK LAKE AND GITES

 

Golden Oak is a beautiful 5 acre lake set in the middle of tranquil farmland. It has everything you need for that total carp fishing experience.

This newly opened lake has never previously been available to the public, but with carp in the region of 35lbs in abundance is sure to make for very rewarding fishing.
 

Located in the North Dordogne, between Limoges and Perigueux. The nearest town is Thiviers.

 

 

The Total Carp Fishing Experience...

At Golden Oak Lake we aim to give you some of the very best carp fishing that France has to offer. We want you to have a completely hassle free stay so that you can concentrate on what you enjoy most.
 

The Fish...

Golden Oak lake offers the challenge of some really large Carp. There are a number of fish in the 35lb region and stocks of even larger fish on their way.
 

The Lake...

Golden Oak Lake is beautiful unspoilt water. This secluded lake with its purpose built swims is limited to a maximum of 5 people fishing at any one time. This coupled with the fact that the lake has only recently been opened to the public gives you a chance to experience some of the most exclusive fishing.
