Studio for rent

If you have read any of our stories from the year 2000, you already know about Nathalie's Gite. It was were we lived for our first 6 months in France.

Recently, Nathalie sold the Gite. But you can still stay with her when you come to look for barges at Bourgogne Marine, H2O or Jean-Luc's Luxemotor Club, because she now has a studio to rent.

The studio has its living room, kitchen and bath on the ground floor and ladder stairs up to a loft with two single beds. There is also a small terrace with a table and chairs for outdoor dining.

Please contact Nathalie directly if you are interested. (Nathalie's English is very good)

If you are coming to St. Jean de Losne to look for a barge, this is the place to stay!
