A 22-hectare lake halfway between Rennes
and Angers, for fishing and hunting
Pouancé, MAINE-ET-LOIRE pays-de-loire 49420 FR

Location

The lake is located in the Pays de la Loire Region, in the Maine-et-Loire area, near to a medieval town at the gateway to the former province of Anjou. The town boasts a hotel, holiday cottages and bed & breakfasts, as well as all the shops you will need for daily life. Châteaubriant is 20 minutes away, Angers and its high-speed rail TGV station is 50 minutes away, Laval and Rennes are both 55 minutes away and Nantes is 1 hour 10 minutes away by car.

Description

At its largest, this 1-kilometre-long lake is 300 metres wide and contains a volume of approximately 350,00 m³. A river runs in and out of the lake and at its northwest tip there is a reeded area. Thanks to an electrically powered sluice gate, the water level can be lowered or raised. It is also used to empty the lake each year for maintenance to take place, a time at which the fish are sold. As a result, the lake is well suited for freshwater fish farming.

Our opinion

This lake teeming with fish lies in a peaceful, countryside setting, where the branches of century-old trees and the majestic silhouette of an elegant 19th-century manor are reflected in its waters. A plethora of different species of animals live here, below the water’s surface as well as on the lake’s shores. The lake already featured on Cassini’s map in the 18th century. It is exempt from water rights since it is considered to be an impounded water course. The future owner will be able to fish without a permit, at a distance of around 1 hour by road from Rennes, Nantes or Laval.
