Priory Gite at Kergudon. Historic Self-Catering Holiday Cottage with lots of charm and character

Priory is our largest gîte and is the oldest building in the village.  It can sleep up to 6 people in its 3 bedrooms, has 2 bathrooms and additional cloakroom and is a dog-friendly cottage.

Priory dates from 1640 and is in a very typical style for the region. Originally a weavers property (who required lots of space) it has had many uses in its nearly 400 year hundred year history but has now been converted into an amazing holiday cottage with oodles of charm and character.

Built in, what would have been locally quarried, slate the building has lots of large exposed beams with a double-height lounge and fabulous fireplace with wood burning stove.  We have converted it to maintain, and add to, the character while giving it as many of the modern luxuries that you would want.

The accommodation is spread over 3 floors.  The main entrance on the ground floor leads into the large farmhouse-style kitchen with all the facilities required for the perfect self-catering holiday.  A large gas hob and double oven; microwave; large fridge freezer; kettle, toaster; coffee machine; dishwasher and washing machine.  There is a communal tumble drier available in the boot room.

There is a cloakroom off the kitchen with toilet and hand basin.
