La Petite Coquais

We have stayed in the beginning of august 2019 at this gite. We had a wonderful time. We were with the 3 of us. We fished in the 3 available lakes. We caught in the main lake ( sheep, close to the gite) the most carp with one big grass carp of 1.03 m weighing aprox 27 pounds. Philip are very kind and helpful in giving you advise how you can fish. Bottum fishing is preferred but I like to fish on the surface and fishing with a float or pin. Therefore the only disadvantage for us was that we were not able to walk around the lake what for my way of fishing would have been nicer. By the way Jane is also very kind and if you need anything you can just ask for it.
The second lake just upside the road is a beatiful lake. ( horse lake) It reminded me to a serie around the redmire pool in England were Chris Yates and Boby james had some adventures. ( passion for angling). I managed to catch a view nice carp, incuding a very nice mirrorcarp. ( all floating). Personally I like the horse lake it had a nice atmosphere and tranquility around it.
In the last lake also just on the upside of the raod ( cutting) we didn't fish a lot, but It holds also carp and catfish.
In total we had a very relaxing week and played some petanque/jeu debowls also. it was also nice to have the bbq as an availability. There is a supermarket closeby and 3 boulangerie in the village with some loverly pastries . Bigger supermarkets are about 10 min drive if you need it.
We wish Plilip and Jane all the best and it is a place to revisit again.

De gite(=woonhuis) is een zeer mooi en ruim huis in een kalme, rustige en landelijke omgeving. Aangename goed onderhouden en afgesloten tuin, waar het rustig vertoeven is. Bbq, tuinmeubels, ligzetels aanwezig.
Wij werden hartelijk verwelkomd door de gastvrouw.
Binnen alles zoals beschreven. Zeer ruime keuken met alles erop en eraan. Elke slaapkamer met aparte badkamer (douche). Wat opviel was de netheid. Alles als nieuw.
De gastheer toonde de visvijvers. Hij kan alle benodigdheden onleuk te hengelen leveren. Vangst van graskarpers, baarzen en witvissen gegarandeerd.
De eigenaars zijn zeer behulpzaam zonder daarom opdringerig te worden.
Het enige minpunt: alleen Engelse zenders op TV. Dat zal deze winter bijgesteld worden. Vanaf dan ook Franse en anderstalige zenders te bekijken.
"La Petite Coquais" is een gite waar men zeker terugkeert.
