Gemjo Barge

Gemjo, our Dutch Barge (Clipper) 30m long and 5m wide, is moored at the Lock House No17, 2051 chemin des Courtinals Castelsarrasin (82100) in the Tarn and Garonne, France. She has been converted into a comfortable home, where we live aboard all year round.

The Lock House No. 17 welcomes visitors during the day for a coffee, cold drinks and ice cream, and in the evening becomes a cosy and private retreat for your exclusive use.

Halfway between Agen and Toulouse (by bicycle), we offer you a well-deserved break.

You will find us on the Entre-Deux-Mers cycle route, close to the town of Castelsarrasin and the town of Moissac, with its Abbaye Saint-Pierre and Cloisters (UNESCO listed) on the Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle Pilgrim Path. A visit to the "Pente d'Eau" water-slope at Montech is also one of the excellent reasons to take a break with us.
