Dawn is a graduate of the prestigious Concord Hotel and Restaurant Management Scheme and follows in the footsteps of her mother, a professional chef. She applies her skills to delight customers every day and her attention to detail ensures that the barge runs as smooth as clockwork.

The Who Knows is a beautiful boat, dark wood panelling gives an air of luxury of a bygone era and with her gleaming brass fittings, she is one of the finest examples of classic yachts on the French waterways.

Jason and Dawn have created a comfortable and luxurious 3 bedroomed au-barge. Forget memories of barges with no mod-cons, this is ensuite, air-conditioned paradise with a library, outdoor sun terrace, sitting room and a great gallery kitchen where Dawn creates gourmet meals for guests. Together they form two halves of a highly professional team and make the perfect hosts. Jason says

“customers come back for Dawn’s food, waking up to the aroma of her home made brioche cooking in the gallery is a memory you don’t forget”.

Dawn says they come back for Jason’s tours and stories – he is a born raconteur and an amazing guide.

What sets them apart is their absolute passion for what they do and their ability to make guests feel really special.
