If you've had both jabs - there is no requirement to quarantine in France.
If you haven't had both jabs, you need to quarantine for 7 days. Hence why my daughters won't be coming on our family holiday in August (if it goes ahead with Macron/Merkel threatening to change the goalposts again - and force UK travellers to quarantine for 14 days on arrival, independent of jabs).

Hi,
as far as I know it's a 7 days "quarantine" at the fishery.
Lake owner are happy to do shopping for you and the good thing is the Covid test is free
Cheers

Should of been in France last week I have to say the venue I had booked and have had to move due to restrictions have been very good, I was supposed to be at Blackberry lake last week with a few mates, I was leaving it as close as possible to the date (in hope) before having to make a judgement, so about a month ago emailed Kris and Ellen and they have kindly moved it to same week-ish next year at no cost.
These guys have invested heavily acquiring the lake in 2018 stocking somewhere in the region of 700 carp feeding them for two years, gravel track laid all the way around the 33 acres then swim building etc...their opening date was March 2020 (hows your luck) weeks and weeks lost last year due to lock down then only the European angers that have booked going when they've been aloud, but Kris is a genuinely nice guy whom I know from meeting a few times at Rainbow, he's obviously invested heavily in a dream and been faced with this in his first few years of trading so hats off to him and his wife.
The Carp Specialist have been very good as well they moved our trip from last October to this year FOC then as a group we decided sod it just recently with all the uncertainty we would move it to October 2022 a small admin fee of £50 euros so no complaints from me.
Just hope all the nonsense does sort itself out soon as I have a trip to Rainbow in September with a mate, I will not bother if it's all the testing and quarantining as well, I don't mind sorting out testing or the cost but then having to come back and quarantine means nearly three weeks off work start to finish just not going to happen and they'll be no re scheduling that trip.

Jim obviously the support from the French Government is well short of what fisheries would normally earn and it must be extremely difficult for new venues to continue without any financial support. I would agree that most fisheries seem to have been very fair in trying to help customers in either rearranging bookings or refunding monies paid in full, but obviously some have not. I will leave it to the anglers who have been unfairly treated to report accordingly. I think we will all be glad when things return to normal!

Sorry David but I must ask you to clarify that statement. The help from the French Government is very welcome but a fraction of the earnings lost due to Covid. I would like to know who are these venue's that are ripping people off because in my circle of lake owner friends without exception the customers have been treated fairly and the venue owners are struggling due to 18 months of lost income. The poor couples that have opened new fisheries during 2020, and there are more than a few of them, have had to contend with no help and no income. Never easy.

Good luck with that trip Phil, very surprised you never went back to my old lake especially as I haven't been there for 9 years (lol). Reading between the lines, some venues are really ripping people off, I think the customers don't realise the support that venues are getting from the French Government and some of those who aren't getting the financial support from the Government for whatever reason, are still doing everything to help their customers. Please give Paul my best regards when you see him!

Cancelled because of COVID and the restrictions that’s still imposed
On the flip side tho Paul has been a diamond as I’ve a trip booked there in October so he’s taken the money and moved it to that date 👍👍👍 can’t say fairer than that as I was expecting to loose the money
