Golden Valley Lake

Carp fishing in France - A Carp Venue in Brittany

Welcome to our Carp fishing in Brittany

Etang du Vaulaurent (in English meaning Lake of the Golden Valley) is our private, family owned lake of some 31 acres, set in 50 acres of our own land, largely forested, and in a quiet rural valley approximately one mile from the village of St Martin sur Oust in the heart of the Morbihan, Brittany France. Our carp fishing venue is tailor made for those who either prefer a "Drive and Survive" style angling break, or, for those who prefer it, we also have serviced lakeside cabin accommodation. 

Over the last three years, the lake has largely been closed whilst we have carried out considerable developments around and adjacent to the water to enhance your angling break. Vaulaurent now offers fully private carp fishing in Brittany, France  with no rights of way across the property, new locations for swims, a modern amenity block, lakeside cabin accommodation (equipped with kitchenette, electricity and running water) if required, and much more to enhance your carp fishing break in France at Golden Valley Venue.

A Dream Location to fish for Carp in France

A lake for carp anglers in BrittanyHaving been a reservoir serving the old mill (now long disused), Vaulaurent is an old naturally balanced, silt bottomed lake featuring tree lined margins and lily pads. Its depth varies from 5 feet to 14 feet at its deepest point.

For many years a favourite fishing location for pike, perch and many other species of fish, the lake has more recently - and by its two previous owners - been stocked and used as carp fishery.  

We reopened in June last year.

Accommodation

Timber Finlandia cabins

Lake in brittany. Cabin upon the bank of a Carp VenueOur timber cabins are new and are well located close to the water at the top of the bank, each with a good view over the lake and its own swims.


A modern amenity block is provided for those wishing simply to "bivvy" by their swims. 

The Fish & Fishing in Brittany - France

As we have had no serious angling during 2007 and 2008 (whilst our lakeside developments have taken place), we don't know exactly how much larger but we wait with anticipation.
