Millstone Pool is a beautifully historic 7-acre carp lake set in the heart of the Limousin countryside, surrounded by woodland and open meadows. With origins dating back several hundred years, this stream-fed water offers a peaceful and atmospheric setting that perfectly suits a traditional French carp fishing holiday.
The lake can be fished by up to five anglers and features a selection of well-positioned swims, allowing anglers to fish in comfortable proximity while still maintaining plenty of water in front of each position. The layout works well for both social trips and more focused fishing weeks.
Millstone Pool is well known for its impressive carp stock, with an average weight in the mid-30lb range, a strong number of fish over 40lb, and several carp exceeding 50lb, including a lake record of over 69lb. These are long-established residents, full of character and power.
Lake features include natural margins, deeper central areas, and subtle underwater contours formed over centuries. Being stream-fed, the water maintains excellent clarity and quality throughout the season, rewarding anglers who take time to explore the lake properly.
Located just 15 minutes from Limoges, Millstone Pool combines easy access with complete tranquillity, making it an excellent choice for anglers seeking quality carp in a classic French setting.
To make travelling easier, bait can be pre-ordered for your session. A selection of proven Union Jack Baits is available, including quality boilies and matching hookbaits that have an excellent track record on the lake.
All bait must be arranged in advance of your trip, with full details provided once your booking is confirmed.
