About this property
La Timonerie d'une péniche sur l'Yonne -- (The Wheelhouse of a Barge on the Yonne River) -- (in French)
Come spend a weekend (or longer!) on the Yonne River in the skipper’s cabin of a 1922 barge, and enjoy the small terrace overlooking the water… Perfect for couples, this charming little retreat—just 10 minutes from Sens and close to all amenities—offers magical mornings and a memorable stay!<br>The cabin features a kitchen with a panoramic view, a small living room, and a bedroom with an en suite bathroom, all preserved in the traditional style of yesteryear. Nearby, the village of Pont-sur-Yonne welcomes you with its market—highly regarded in the region—and a tennis court just 5 minutes away...<br><br>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Séjour idyllique
Vivre quelques jours sur cette péniche, même arrimée, offre un dépaysement agréable avec tout le confort d'un petit appartement élégant. Le voisinage (oiseaux et mammifères peuplant le halage) est sympathique.
