Nous avons apprécié l'originalité de la chambre sur une péniche, sur le Canal du Midi. Jonathan et Barbara (je crois) sont des hôtes très sympathiques, qui savent être discrets mais aussi qui partagent leur expérience, anecdotes et projets avec la péniche. Petit déjeuner copieux (salé ou sucré au choix) partagé avec nos hôtes. La chambre est petite mais confortable et la salle de bain privée est parfaite. La décoration est soignée et le poêle à bois dans la salle principale donne une ambiance chaleureuse et conviviale. La ville de Carcassonne n'est pas très loin, et se fait très bien en vélo en longeant le Canal du Midi. Nous recommandons vivement l'expérience à la péniche Mirage.

Looking for atypical accommodation? Mirage is an authentic grain barge from the 1950s, fully restored. Its charm is matched only by the beauty of the ‘Canal du Midi’ where it is moored at the Herminis sluice in Carcassonne. The barge can accommodate up to 6 persons in three comfortable air-conditioned cabins, equipped with queen size beds, their private bathrooms and restrooms. On the deck, you can relax on the 50 m2 (538 sq ft) teak terrace turned into a real living room with its outdoor Lounge Chairs, comfortable armchairs, and hot tub. You will be able to enjoy the charm and peace of the canal's banks in the middle of the largest vineyard in Europe. This floating guest house will charm you for a night or a stay. As a couple or with friends, come to discover this atypical and unusual place. Whether sweet or salty, a breakfast that will satisfy all gourmets and gourmands will be served to you. Just a few minutes from the center of the historical city of Carcassonne and its medieval city, a tourist hotspot classified by UNESCO, come and refill your batteries in the exceptional setting offered aboard Mirage
Jonathan opens the door to the wheelhouse and gives you a warm welcome as soon as you arrive at this unusual accommodation on the Canal du Midi.
