Our Story



We, Marie-Paule and Benoit, created La Halte du Pèlerin in July 2007 in the very house where Benoit's grandmother used to live. Having always been in close contact with people through her career as a trainer, Marie-Paule always wished to maintain this social connection while being fully present for her children. We therefore made the heartfelt choice to open our guest house and offer a shared dining experience, creating true moments of warmth and togetherness.
