| The interior of the Belle Epoque is very spacious, with a large,
open plan saloon and dining area being the principal interior area
for guests’ relaxation. A unique and very cosy circular banquette
seat (above left) is perfect for families sit at and play board
games during less favourable weather (though this is rare indeed!),
or simply to sit at whilst enjoying a cool white wine or cocktail
from the large and imposing bar which is also in the main saloon
area. There are several other intimate rest areas in the saloon, so
guests are never obliged to all sit together— if people wish to sit
quietly and read a book in their own corner, for example, that is no
problem and is easily achieved. The opulent and solid dining room table (above right) is also a useful place to enjoy a board game, cards or chess on those not-so-cheery days, as well as enjoying the gourmet food prepared especially by your chef for you each evening of course. When the sun is shining however, which is most of the time in this region of France, guests are encouraged to take full advantage of the sunny sun deck (see pic on page one), not to mention the ultimate luxury of the large splash pool which is certainly big enough for major fun! While we were on board the children were making the most of this play opportunity and we could understand why! Suites are large (by barging standards) on the Belle Epoque and bathrooms are each tiled throughout in light grey marble (see picture below). Showers are a generous size and all fittings are of a very good quality, both in terms of materials and workmanship. Good-sized mirrors and plenty of space in which to manoeuvre also make being on the Belle Epoque a real pleasure. |
