Saroche was designed to offer a homely atmosphere without
sacrificing
any of the luxury to be expected from a high
class hotel.
Saroche offers 3 en suite staterooms for 6
passengers. The vessel has a split level lounge/dining room
(25' x 16'), a quiet library and writing room featuring a
foliage surrounded fish pond with goldfish and a large sun
deck and parasol-covered dining deck - for meals 'al fresco'.
The lounge/dining area was designed to reflect the colours
of Provence, its subtle peach and cream decor highlighted
with accents of amber and turquoise. The cool mosaic tiled
dining area and white oak floored salon are complemented
by wrought iron and hardwood balustrades and a profusion
of leafy indoor plants. Eight large opening windows and
a hexagonal skylight flood the room with sunshine and fresh
air, as rippling reflections from the water dance across
the wood timbered ceiling, flashing across brass ceiling
fans - all reflecting and absorbing the atmosphere, bright
colours and sunshine of the French countryside.
The
comfortable armchairs, wood burning fire, hardwood fully
stocked bar, stereo/CD player, satellite TV with
CNN and CNBC, news, video and DVD player and library
complete the cosy atmosphere - where passengers quickly
feel at
home
SLEEPING ACCOMMODATION
Saroche's staterooms reflect the high standard to which the vessel was designed.
The largest six-passenger barge currently cruising in France, the staterooms
are bright, luxurious and spacious - more closely resembling a hotel
room than a ship's cabin. All the beds can be converted into either twin
beds or queen sized double beds.
Rooms
have large wardrobes with ample hanging drawer and shelf
space and alcoves with make-up/shaving mirrors above
tiled washbasins. Bathrooms contain extra large fully
tiled shower cubicles with high ceilings, easy access
glass doors and adjustable speed shower nozzles. Hot
water is abundant, hair dryers are provided in all cabins
and large fluffy bath sheets add to the feeling of luxury.
All cabins have opening windows, central heating and
individually controlled air conditioning systems.
