| The Merganser is a traditional conversion of an old Dutch barge designed specifically for cruising on the waterways of Europe. There are eight berths in total - three twin cabins and two single cabins, all with en suite facilities. The dining, lounge areas and cabins are all on one level, and there is a large sun deck with comfortable seating up above. The wheelhouse is spacious and passengers can sit there and enjoy the views even when the weather is less favourable. Guests enjoy very good food and wine, with all dishes freshly prepared on board by your personal barge chef using local produce. As with all barges, special diets can be catered for with advance notice. |
