Of course, you know what a "toue" is, and it is therefore useless to remind you that it is a typical boat of the Loire region, with a flat bottom, intended to slip between the sandbanks to which its nose in the form of a cutaway allows easy access.
The "toue cabanée" is a toue with dimensions allowing the installation of a cabin which, a long time ago, was used by professional Loire fishermen.
Today, it has a more touristic use: it has become a river lodge!
If you want to sleep in the most peaceful way, here are three of them, on the Loire, in front of the castle of Saumur. Close your eyes... and let yourself be carried away by the smell of the river, "a good sweet and humid smell, a subtle and particular mix of shell, willow and warm sand perfume" as the person in charge of Loire Valley, one of the three addresses I'm giving you, describes it poetically, lovingly.
A particularly unusual night, of course, accompanied by the murmur of the water along the hull!
