House boat trips in France

Let me assure BOB THE NAV - I have done a search on this forum - no mention of this topic

Has anybody done house boat trips on the waterways of France, more specifically St Malo, Dinan - Rennes, or Loire Valley regions? I have come across a couple of references to such routes on the internet, but have not accumulated enough information in order to choose a renting company. There are some listed under certain search engins, but they are not in the regions mentioned. Maybe sombody knows who I can contact for more information regarding house boat rentals in those regions ...?
Thank you!

Try searching for "canals" in France and I am sure you will find my posting (long). If not, let me know. I did a trip down the Canal du Midi and loved it. We used Rives de France.

We used Crown Blue (www.crownblue.com) doing the Midi Canal. We've been to 35 countries and L O V E D the canal trip. Need more info, write me back. I spend a year researching each trip so know virtually every company out there.

Thank you Francesca for the info you provided some time ago. We have plans to do such a trip in October. We have arrangements with Locaboats Plaisance and are looking forward to our trip.

Therefore, please share any or all of your surprises of living on board a penichette in France.
