Behind the counter, Soizic Calixte keeps answering the phone. The person in charge of the reception of the communal village Vacances et Pêche de Villiers-Charlemagne repeats that it is complete. “We’ve had a lot of people since January and here we really find holidaymakers, it’s nice.“
Among them, there are regulars, like Isabelle and Lionel, who came with their children and grandchildren. As every year for ten years, they reserve the same wooden chalets, installed at the edge of the water and which make the reputation of the Holiday and Fishing village. “It’s been a moment of rest, with the family, every Ascension weekend for a decade.“
For fishing, you have to ask her husband, Lionel. “We come here because it’s calm, quiet, we like it and we fish well.” Lionel fishes for carp and teaches his son-in-law how to do it.
