Company info

My name is Aga, and I am very happy to welcome you to La Besace 🌿 I am originally from Poland and moved to France in 2010 with my French husband, Franck. Together, we are proud parents of our twins, Chloé and Hugo, who were born in 2014 and bring a lot of joy (and energy!) to our daily life 😊 I have been working in hospitality since 2004 and welcoming guests is not just my job — it is truly my passion. I love meeting people from all over the world, sharing stories, and making everyone feel comfortable, relaxed and at home. I speak Polish, English and French, and I also enjoy cooking. Preparing a good home-cooked meal and sharing it with my guests is one of the things I enjoy the most 🍽️ Running my own B&B is a dream that came true, and La Besace is a place where I put my heart into every detail. I sincerely hope you will feel the calm, warmth and friendliness of the house during your stay. I look forward to welcoming you in person very soon. Warmest regards, Aga
