Located in a natural setting, 6 km from Epernay, along a verdant canal, this spacious houseboat offers you a unique stopover in the heart of the Champagne hills, in an area listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

It welcomes you for a relaxing stay as close to nature as possible

Nearby (100 m / 328 ft), you will find: a bar-restaurant, a tobacco shop, a bakery, and a pétanque court.

The space
The "Dolce vita" has a vast, very bright living room with many windows directly overlooking the canal.
It is decorated in a bohemian spirit.
A dining table welcomes you for your meals.


The American kitchen is fully equipped (fridge freezer dishwasher stove microwave oven, kettle, toaster, senseo espresso coffee maker)

The cabin also overlooks the canal is modest in size (we are on a boat...) but the delight is intact

The shower / toilet area is simply functional

The small terrace has a dining table for 2 and a lounge chair

This is a home I live in regularly. I'm glad you feel at home here and find all the comforts you expected. Just know that I leave items and belongings there.

Guest access
You have access to all the areas of the boat.
except for the 2nd bedroom, locked, which is not accessible

Other things to note
Don't be afraid of mosquitoes, there aren't any ...

A bus that runs Monday to Saturday joins Epernay train station, right in the city center, in 20 minutes

Since the boat is located on a canal and not on a river, it does not move, so no problem with seasickness ...

The living room is air conditioned.
In the bedroom, you will find a fan

In winter, the boat is very well heated by a heat pump and a pellet stove and it is also very comfortable and just as exotic.
Being ideally located in the heart of the champagne slopes, it offers an interesting stopover as the holidays approach for the champagne refueling.

Nearby, within walking distance: a bar-restaurant open for lunch from Monday to Saturday and on Friday evenings, a tobacco shop, and a bakery
And to distract yourself: a pétanque court

“The venue can also be booked privately during the day for meetings, seminars, or small-group workshops (up to 10 people).” Please don't hesitate to contact me for more information.
