About this property

Eco-friendly boat cabin on the Loire River, "La Toue Reine," near Tours - Loire Valley

  • Charming cottage on the Loire, the Queen Toue - for 2 adults and 2 children> 10 years.

    Spend a magical time on the Loire, the last great wild river in Europe. And let yourself be lulled by the waters on Toue Queen, charming cottage on the water, eco-friendly accommodation combining charm and romanticism.

    Replica of a toue cabanée traditional, old boat which sailed over the Loire until the early 20th century, Queen Toue is moored in the heart of nature, in the Loire.
    Although installed in your living area, cozy and comfortable, you will never tire of observing wild for hours and exceptional landscapes of the Loire, its birds, its fishermen and its old ships. On the wider front axle, you can not only enjoy eating and sunbathing; but you will also be ringside seat to admire magnificent sunrises or sunsets on the Loire: a magical and unforgettable moment! At night, you'll feel you sleep lost in the water, rocked by the lapping of water (one bedroom with a double bed and 2 single sofa 70x190 cm in the living room) ..
    Equipped with a kitchenette (with hob and small fridge-freezer) and a small bathroom (with dry toilets and shower), Queen Toue is a small but real house, allowing you to take you for a Loire boatman for several days to see one week.

    The Toue queen is installed according to the season and the level of the Loire, between the Chapel to Naux and port of Bréhémont.

Magical

It was so lovely on board, just enjoying the river and views of the islands, that we spent most of the day on the boat. The interior is first rate- charming, clean and romantic. There is a wealth of wildlife to be seen from the boat.
