Bellevue Lodge

Vlag voor France France Show on map

Bellevue Lodge is situated on a beautiful 1.5-hectare fishing water in Saint-Pierre-des-Landes. From the glass sliding doors, you have a direct view over the entire lake with its characteristic island. On this side of the water, there is also a spacious and atmospheric terrace. The island is accessible via a small bridge, but unfortunately, fishing from the island itself is not allowed.

Since you have both the lodge and the lake completely private at your disposal, several fixed spots have been set up. You can choose from which spot you want to fish. Additionally, there is a spacious spot with a power connection where you can also set up a tent if desired.

In the water of Bellevue Lodge, there are about 100 carp with an average weight of 15 kg, supplemented by some beautiful grass carp. There are also two sturgeons living in the lake. The accommodation accommodates four people, making it an ideal location for couples, friends, or families who want to enjoy their fishing holiday in peace.

On the border of Normandy and Brittany lies the idyllic Etang Marolles complex, a 20-hectare estate nestled among farmland. Here you’ll find peace, nature, and three beautiful lakes: the main lake Etang Marolles, the lake with the Bellevue Lodge accommodation, and a third lake still under development. The location is easily accessible; you drive on French highways until the last stretch. As soon as you cross the bridge onto the property, you’ll immediately feel you’ve arrived at the right place.

Bellevue Lodge has been built with care and attention, which you notice as soon as you step inside. The interior is neat, warm, and completely in harmony with the surroundings. The owners are proud of what they’ve created and hope guests treat the accommodation with the same care during their stay. The fixed arrival time is Saturday from 4:00 PM, and departure is Saturday at 10:00 AM. Arriving earlier is not possible. Several fishing spots have been set up across the property for you to use.

🎣 The Lake – Bellevue Lodge

The lake at Bellevue Lodge is slightly larger than three hectares and offers everything a carp angler dreams of:

  • natural banks with trees and overhanging shrubs
  • lily fields
  • weeping willows
  • an island accessible via a bridge

All lakes at the Etang Marolles complex are fed by a stream. This keeps the oxygen levels stable and ensures consistent catches throughout the season. The average depth of Bellevue Lodge is 1 to 1.5 meters, with deeper zones between 2 and 3 meters. The bottom consists of a mix of silt, clay, and gravel, creating interesting hotspots at each spot.

The spacious fishing spots are finished with semi-circular cherry wood logs and fine gravel, keeping them mud-free all year round. Banksticks, singlez systems, and rod pods are all well-suited for use. If you wish, you can fish from your own private spot right next to the lodge — directly in front of the French doors and close to the hot tub/spa.

🐟 The Fish Stock

The fish stock at Bellevue Lodge has been carefully curated. Over the years, the owners have only introduced hand-selected, high-quality carp. As a result, you’ll find a beautiful mix of fish species and scale patterns in the water:

  • high-shouldered powerhouses
  • classic scale carp in deep chestnut color, typical of old English estate lakes
  • full scales and perfectly marked mirrors
  • linear and leather carp variants
  • a few real character fish that regularly impress on the shore

In total, the lake contains about 120 fast-growing carp, most of which weigh between 13 and 18 kg. Additionally, there are grass carp up to 18 kg and one resident sturgeon, affectionately named “Martin,” who often provides a surprising bite.

Predatory fish include pike, zander, and perch. There are no catfish, no poisson chat, and no crayfish. A healthy population of roach and tench contributes to a stable and natural biomass.
