Good gite in Le Puy

We will be 8 people setting out on our walk from Le Puy. DP or near to restaurants.
Can anyone recommend a good gite in Le Puy?
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-

Hi Ozzie,

I stayed there twice, once when I started out the Le-Puy-way in a cold February, and once when I arrived in Le Puy from Geneva in October. It is a lovely gite in the centre of the old town very close to the cathedral, hosted by St. Franciscan nuns. You need to book in advance if you are in a larger group - they have 19 beds in 13 rooms and generally very nice facilities, including a large kitchen/day room with great views and a garden.
It is ~20 Euros with breakfast, but ideal to ease you in gently to the perhaps more spartan accommodations further along the way.
Also just opposite and down along the cobbled street is a very nice restaurant with outside seating.

Thank you Steff .. sounds great!
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
I heard this is now a private back and breakfast and no longer run by the nuns.
