La Basse Morlière, Charbonnières, France
Morliere Lake is at the heart of the Perche region, one of the most natural regions of France, on the border of Normandy. On an enclosed and completely private estate, this beautiful and atypical 6 acre lake includes two islands in its centre. We created 3 double, main fishing swims which allow you to explore the areas around the islands. Here, the record catch is 67 lbs and the average is around 28 lbs!!
7 years ago, the lake was expanded, re-excavated and stocked. Bottom now reaches down to 9 feet in some places and a small gravel path follows the perimeter of the lake preventing mud emergence. We designed 3 double swims which allow you to explore the areas around the islands. Parking in the field gives quick access to the lake. You can easily set up your bivvy and materials thanks to fishing barrows provided.
Stocking included only fish between 22 and 44 lbs at the time of renovation, all from Bigot fish farm. Health guaranteed!! After additional stocking, the record catch is 67 lbs and the catch average is around 28lbs!! This runs water is populated with Mirror Carp, Common Carp, Koi, Grass Carp and sturgeon up to 70lbs (no catfish).
Install your bivvy anywhere you want around your swim thanks to the gravel path all around the lake. There are two small shelters for rainy days.
For your comfort, we have provided toilets, sinks and shower with hot water. You will also find a log cabin with a small kitchen, freezer and electrical outlets.

Undoubtedly, the focus of most visits and the best known sight here is Chartres and, above all, Chartres cathedral, which is a protected World Heritage Site. The town of Chartres has an old quarter which should keep you occupied for a while.
The most well known castle in Eure-et-Loir is impressively located at Chateaudun – as with Chartres, don’t neglect to explore the town itself.
