As an alternative to driving from the U.K., why not fly in, hire a car at the airport, and then take advantage of our Tackle Hire Package?
There are 5 airports within 2.5 hours drive of Quarry Bank – Limoges, Nantes, Poitiers, La Rochelle and Bordeaux. Ryanair, among others, offer some really cheap flights and a car can be hired to be awaiting you at the airport. (A small budget car will be enough as you will be carrying minimal luggage anyway). You will find this should work out considerably cheaper than booking a ferry or the tunnel and then paying the fuel and tolls, not to mention the wear and tear on your vehicle.
Any shopping you require can be collected from a local supermarket on your way to our French fishing lake and you are welcome to take advantage of our fully kitted kitchen with utensils, stove, microwave, fridge, freezer and barbeque. Quarry Bank is so secure, you are safe to leave your gear for a mid-week run to the shops, restaurants, or whatever you fancy.
