Bernard entame sa 21e saison. Midi Libre – L. D.

Bernard Barny est l’un des gérants de cette paillote prisée pour sa tranquillité où le contact humain est primordial.

"C’est le plus beau bureau du monde."Arriving in Montpellier in his forties, Bernard Barny, this sea lover was a beach attendant before setting up La Plagette in Carnon with a friend, which is starting its 21st season.

“It's a beach where we have always preserved calm and zenitude, but above all we want it to be affordable.” A key point for this boss who wants the luxury of a deckchair to remain accessible to all. That's why at La Plagette, the menu offers low prices to allow everyone to come.

A slightly complicated start

"Unfortunately the start of the season was a little complicated, but that's the game, we are subject to the vagaries of the weather which has been particularly unstable." And even if this year, they have not been spared, the managers are not giving up.

A big family

The customers, mostly regulars, have been coming for years. &amp “We saw children being born, we saw them grow up and some even became beach attendants,” he explains with emotion. ~ “There is a real connection with people over time and that is precious. Everyone comes to recharge their batteries."

Before concluding: " And then every morning when we arrive, there's no comparison, it's the most beautiful office in the world."
