Péniche Mirage

Houseboat on the Canal du Midi

Presentation Practical information
Mirage, an elegant 1950s barge moored in the Cathar Country.

Enjoy 48 hours of serenity in Pays Cathare aboard an elegant grain barge from the 1950s. On the banks of the peaceful Canal du Midi, Mimi and Pascal welcome their guests with generosity and passion. Because they are passionate. They waited two years to find their barge and undertake significant work to make it as beautiful as it is luxurious: entirely wood-furnished, the three double cabins offer high-end bedding, a private bathroom, and large copper portholes to enjoy the view of the Canal du Midi.

Depending on the season, you can choose the 50 m2 terrace with its jacuzzi, the wood stove in the indoor lounge, or an aerial adventure.

Carcassonne*, castles, abbeys, Canal du Midi, and Canal de la Robine*—these historical landmarks of the Pays Cathare can be flown over aboard "Comet," Pascal's biplane. A former fighter pilot, instructor, and Mirage 2000 demonstrator for 21 years in the Air Force, Pascal adds a unique touch to the experience. (*UNESCO World Heritage sites)

Like a bridge between two professional lives, Mimi and Pascal named their barge "Mirage," a delightful reality moored at the Herminis lock.
