    Highlights

    Overview

    Less than 30 minutes from Calais, Kabaneo is one of those rare venues that feels a world away – yet takes less time to reach than to load the car.

    Covering just under 2 acres (approximately 1.5–1.7 acres), this charming, irregularly shaped lake offers an intimate carp fishing experience, ideal for a short break or a spontaneous session close to home.

    Kabaneo is designed primarily for one angler, with a maximum of two anglers (two rods each). This is not a big-water, numbers-driven venue. Instead, it’s a comfortable and accessible retreat where the focus is on enjoyment, atmosphere and beautifully scaled carp rather than chasing records.

    The cosy on-site chalet, fully equipped with mains electricity (not solar) and running water, makes it perfect for a couple looking to combine fishing and comfort. With a supermarket just 800 metres away, everything is within easy reach.

    Lake

    Kabaneo is an old marshland pond dating back to the time of the monks, giving it real character and a unique layout.

    The lake features:

    An unusual, twisting shape

    A narrower, river-like section directly in front of the chalet

    A wider open-water area further out

    With a maximum depth of around 5.5 ft (1.7m) and predominantly silky, silty bottoms, it offers classic carp water conditions. Moderate weed growth and scattered lily pads add both charm and tactical options for anglers.

    The lake benefits from a regular inflow of fresh water from a nearby river, keeping conditions healthy all year round.

    There are two gravelled swims, well prepared, although vehicle access to the swims is not available.

    Fish

    Kabaneo holds plenty of mystery – and possibly a few surprises.

    We know that:

    25 carefully selected carp have recently been introduced, ranging from 20 to 35 lbs (9 to 15 kg), all chosen for their stunning scale patterns.

    Around 15 additional carp between 10 and 20 lbs (4 to 8 kg) have also been stocked.

    The current known top weight for mirror carp stands at 33 lbs (15 kg), but with older, undocumented fish already present in the lake, there may well be unexpected rewards for those who explore it properly.

    There are no nuisance species such as bream or catfish, and no sturgeon or grass carp. The focus here is purely on quality carp with character.

    Bait boats and rowing boats are permitted, giving anglers the freedom to make the most of the lake’s features.

    Description

    Kabaneo offers a single fully equipped chalet overlooking the lake, designed to comfortably accommodate two people. Ideal for a couple, it provides the perfect balance between a fishing trip and a relaxing countryside break.

    The chalet benefits from mains electricity and drinking water, ensuring a level of comfort rarely found on smaller venues. Inside, you will find a fully equipped kitchen with a gas hob, microwave, toaster, kettle and coffee machine. Cookware, crockery and cutlery are all provided, along with a fridge for storing bait and food. Bed linen is included, so you can travel light.

    The accommodation also features a bathroom with a shower, heating for cooler months, and a fan for warmer days. A Smart TV with UK channels is available, allowing you to unwind in the evenings.

    Outside, a private terrace overlooks the lake, complete with garden furniture and a gas barbecue, making it easy to enjoy meals with a view of the water. A free rowing boat is available for use on the lake, and bait boats are permitted.

    Although vehicle access to the swims is not available, the gravelled swims are well prepared and electricity is available on the bank. With a supermarket just 800 metres away, everything you need is within easy reach, making Kabaneo a convenient and comfortable short-break destination.
