The Charentaise people are well known to be the friendliest and warmest of people, especially to the English, with whom they share a romantic historic past. In nearby towns, there is a wonderful variety of shops, as well as historic and futuristic sights to see, and places of interest to visit. Maquignon, set in rural South West France, is such a peaceful place for unwinding and relaxing and enjoying the countryside, yet set in such a way that you can travel around and enjoy the "chic, splendour and culture" that France is renowned for.

FISHING
The Lakes ...
The fishing lake in the grounds is stocked with carp up to 30lbs, tench etc.
In 2005 we purchased a new lake (approximately 2 acres) and several acres of woodland adjoining our property. It's an idyllic spot in a nature reserve, the lake is spring fed and up to 30 ft deep. It has a native population of Carp, Tench, Perch and Roach. In December we re-stocked the lake with 2 tonnes of carp from 3 Kilos (7 Pounds) to over 20 Kilo (45 Pounds), Tench up to 3 Kilo (7 Pounds) and a few Pike. Only a small number of guests who stay at our properties are allowed to fish this lake, it's only for the experienced angler and children must not be left alone by the lake due to its isolation and depth of water.
We do not need to restock as fish are always returned so they are breeding all the time. You will not find better fishing and its free!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! in the big lake we have stocked some carp of over 40lb these are wild fish not like in uk .
The lake is an old quarry from 70/80 years ago when the operator quarried for 'Terre Blanch" used by the pharmaceutical and beauty product market. It was abandoned due to the underground streams flooding the excavation.
You can sit in complete tranquility to fish and surrounded by wildlife: watch the woodpeckers flying by and the kingfishers swooping for fish. It's a wonderful, special place, the pictures do not do it justice.
