A gentle cruise through the French countryside on a fully-crewed, luxury hotel barge is a delightful way to soak up the wonderful scenery, and enjoy the beautiful food and wine that France has on offer. Without the worry of moving hotels or hiring a car, you’ll gently meander from one place of interest to another, enjoying the slower pace of life along the locks. The barge doesn’t move at a great speed between moorings, giving you the chance to cycle or amble alongside it and take in the ambience; maybe meet a group of locals enjoying the peace and quiet.
The boats have been refurbished to an incredibly high standard all with traditional features such as hardwood panelling and antique furniture. The bedrooms are spacious with ensuite, and all barges offer a library, a communal seating area to relax in and dining area. All boats have an outside area to relax on, and some offer a spa pool on the sun deck to watch the world go by from. There is a real emphasis on food and wine on the Barges, the food bought and cooked by culinary experts onboard and each wine list specialised and tailored to the region of France in which you will be travelling.
