A New Challenge for La Neyliére

Marists

It has already been two months since we took over the management of La Neylière as a couple: a new adventure is beginning for us and for this establishment! But how did this happen?

We have known the Marist Fathers for a long time thanks to our friend Father Pascal Boidin and our participation in the Relais Mariste. We have also had the opportunity to stay at La Neylière (the last time was in 2023: the second stage of our journey to Santiago de Compostela). In addition, Thierry has experience in administration and management, while Claire has experience in hospitality and community involvement: our profiles seem to complement each other perfectly. As we are both self self-employed, we can each free up half a day…

We quickly realised that we saw this proposal as a calling, and so we set about updating our CVs and attending interviews. Since our arrival, we have been touched by the kindness of all those who have accompanied us: it is a great joy for us to work in such an atmosphere!

We wish each of you a wonderful 2026: peace and joy grow in your hearts and in our world. And may we work together to make this house, so dear to the hearts of the Marist Fathers, known and loved: come and see us, spread the word, so that this wonderful adventure may continue!
