Hi pilgrims
We are a Dutch / Danish couple living in Capbreton, France (so on the Chemin de Tours).
We have a tiny cute little garden house with a double bed which is most of the time standing unused (it is our "guest room" and only used when family and friends come to visit us). It is very modest - but it is a good bed and we thought that we could offer it to pilgrims in desperate need of a place to sleep (free of charge or on a "pay as you like" basis). We do not have the means to dish up with meals or provide long baths - but we like to meet strangers and do have an unused comfortable bed, just standing there ...
So I would like to get your help and to hear your opinions on the following:
1. We live in a small house with two little children and would like to limit the access to the toilet, so that it would be "off limits" in the night. Is that realistic? If not, what if we offered an solution outside instead?
2. We're on a budget, so could not really offer shower to everybody stopping by - would that be ok?
3. Honestly - do you think it sounds like something that could of interest to pilgrims?
4. If yes, where and how could we "advertise" it?
