Self-Drive Holidays on Lakes 1 & 2
The DreamLake Complex, consisting of six mature, tree-lined lakes offers excellent carp and catfish angling on either our Inclusive Package (all lakes) or Voyage Self-Drive (lakes 1 and 2) basis. Currently five of the lakes are open, the sixth housing a huge number of stock fish, ensuring future growth and development. We aim to provide our anglers with the highest quality French carp fishing holiday.

Offering the size and numbers of carp you would never hope to find in any English water, the peace and tranquillity of the beautiful Champagne countryside only serve to enhance the DreamLake Experience. DreamLakes 1 and 2 are able to offer a great experience for anglers who want to do their own pioneering in France.

Only four hours drive from Calais, and with the advantage of knowing that there is always someone on hand to give expert help and advice, you have the freedom to enjoy some really impressive ‘all action style’ carp angling.

Shop & Facilities
On-site you will find a small shop in addition to the shower/toilet facilities and will benefit from the exclusive services of a DreamLake Bailiff. Should you wish, your P&O Ferry crossing, equipment hire, breakfast/evening meals and bait can be arranged for you prior to departure.

Complementing the services available, and located at the DreamLake Lodge (adjacent to DL2) is our air-conditioned Restaurant, Shop and Tackle Hire Centre, payphone and TV, as well as further shower/toilet facilities. Rods, reels, bedchairs, mats, nets and buzzers are all available for hire prior to departure whilst bait, leads, marker floats, braid, hooklinks and a wide range of other useful tackle items are stocked on-site.

In addition you will find confectionery, beers, wine, phone cards, aspirin, Coleman fuel/gas, batteries, films and various other sundry items including our top quality DreamLake T-shirts, sweat-shirts and caps.

Equipment Hire
All equipment hire must be arranged and paid for prior to departure. Prices for equipment hire are detailed on the Booking Form, however, you should add £25 per item as a damage deposit. This is refundable, at the end of the hire period, in the absence of any damage. Damage incurred may result in the loss of some or all of the hire deposit.

Please note: all hired equipment's damage deposits will be payable in France at the lodge on arrival and will be refunded on departure subject to condition of equipment.

Bait
For the best results from your holiday I strongly recommend The Cell and Fusion. They are used every week and are more than just an attractive bait... they are also part of the carps' staple diet and as a result are not treated with suspicion.
We have proved week after week that the more anglers who use these baits, the better the overall results. You are only there for one week at a time, so don't leave anything to chance!
