Description for B&B:
Experience the tranquility of the floating gardens, Somme ponds, or the towpath valley as you embark on a delightful pedestrian stroll along the canal, away from the bustling traffic of Amiens city center and its remarkable Gothic cathedral. This leisurely walk presents an ideal opportunity to spot a variety of beautiful birds such as herons, swans, kingfishers, grebes, sparrows, and more, which can be observed throughout the year.For a greener alternative, we offer bicycles for a refreshing ride along the picturesque Somme. However, if you prefer to reach downtown by car, it will only take you a few minutes.
Our commitment to using natural and ecological materials during the renovation process, as well as our daily environmentally-friendly practices including the management of water, energy, and waste, have earned us the esteemed "environment" qualification from the departmental committee of tourism. We are also featured in the renowned guidebook "1001 Ecological Nights" by Carolina Guilleminot and Pascal Gréboval, published by Editions Dakota.
