Accueils jacquaires: are there any on the Vézelay Route

For various reasons, my wife and I prefer to walk short stages averaging 10 to 15km per day.
There are a few longer stages which seem not to have gîtes or any type of accommodation, and I was wondering whether anyone knew of accueils jacquaires (which exist on the Via Gebennensis) on the Vézelay Route. These are private homes owned by people who have done the Camino.
I am particularly interested in accueils jacquaires from Mont-de-Marsan to SJPdP.
Thank you!
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

€83,-
To get into the Accueils Jacquaires chain, first point of entry is normally the tourist office ;-)

St James' Way - Self-guided 4-7 day Walking Packages, Reading to Southampton, 110 kms
I cycled a rather idiosyncratic route from Lepuy to Brittany this year and passed through Mont-de-Marsan. I'm not sure if you would be heading for the coast from MdM but if so I stayed at a bnb in Léon, The Villa Souvenir, run by a German who has done the Camino several times. A wonderful place frequented by walkers and cyclists on the Vélodyssée. Exceptional hospitality.
 
Hello AJ,

Out of the MiamMiamDodoDodo, the site of the Dutch pilgrims association is a very good starting point for the pilgrims on the Voie de Vézelay.
They are keeping a very well updated page with list of accommodations.
For the nostalgic ones, their guide is the descendant of the well known "Guide jaune" of Mme Chassain.

Buen Camino,
Jacques-D.

Thank you Jacques-D! That's a useful resource.
I was going to order the MMDD, but as I live in Australia, it takes its time to get here...
P.S.: the J in my name is also Jacques :)
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
The Dutch site above has both the guidebook and the facilities guide as downloadable pdf documents in English: https://www.santiago.nl/english/guides-as-pdf-files

We have similar limited distance capabilities, and when we find a case where the next accommodations are too far for us, we will arrange for some sort of ride in the mornings to drop us a few kilometers down the trail to a point where we can walk the rest of the distance.

That Guide Jaune was a masterpiece
 
Bonjour @AJGuillaume

Here are a couple of links to follow. The accommodation lists include monasteries and convents (auberge religieuse).

€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.
I was going to order the MMDD, but as I live in Australia, it takes its time to get here...
Just try this: Contact the library L'OR DES ETOILES
29 rue Saint Etienne 89450 VEZELAY Téléphone : 03 86 33 30 06 Courriel: librairie[A]ordesetoiles.fr
and ask them to keep it in stock for you.
This will save time and money :)

Hi, please see my post from today about a new portal about the Vézelay Route. On the digital map, you will find brown markings indicating pilgrim accommodation. Bon chemin!
