Hi Scruffy,
We stayed there in 2010.
** You will only use MMDD Scruffy , seriously.
We had an english speaking frenchman , Michel , a great guy , no one else in mid june.
Cooking is not taking too seriously, donation for all facilities and you will have a room on your own , i promise you.
It's in the country side [ Plan 20 on MMDD] but beautiful.
The next morning he took our bags to Conques to attend Sunday Mass whilst we enjoyed the day walking without a pack
We all met him there and enjoyed the day , the feeling walking without a pack is wonderful.
We were also grateful because the decent into Conques is very dangerous if h20 around.
We were in the same company [ French lady from Comedy Paris and a Moroccan guy living in Nice] that commenced that day in Estaing with us. It was a great night.
**** There are some days , Estaing etc when you will actually seek out the accommodation normally found on the Frances.
I will stay there again when i repeat the Le Puy/ S De C camino.
If you are not sure the walk to Espeyrac/Senergues only 3.5/7.0km , is stunning , especially next morning when fresh.
The most beautiful way is Le Puy,
Enjoy Sruffy old boy,
David
