Description
La Vieille Longere is a lovely old stone longhouse which retains many original features and has been sympathetically renovated to provide comfortable year-round self-catering accommodation for couples, small adult groups or older families (age 13+).
The Breton arched doorway opens into a double height hall with exposed oak beams and A-frames. The living room is dual aspect and has french doors at one end opening onto the barbecue terrace which has far reaching rural views. The galley kitchen has a comprehensive inventory of cooking equipment, crockery, cutlery and glassware.
There are two ensuite bedrooms on the first floor, one double and one twin, either side of a galleried landing. There is also a double bedroom on the ground floor adjacent to a small shower room. Our prices are based on up to four guests choosing any two of the bedroom suites - there is a significant year-round discount available to couples wanting to use just one bedroom, or a supplement for up to 6 guests requiring all three bedrooms - contact us or check our website for the full price structure.
The area is particularly popular with walkers and nature lovers. The proximity of the River Lie and Loudeac Forest ensure a multitude of birds and wildlife. There are beautiful sunsets and clear night skies ideal for star gazing.
Within a 15km radius are a selection of market villages with restaurants, assorted shops and fishing lakes.
Just half-hour's drive from Plessala gives access to beautiful beaches, international standard golf courses, inland lakes with water sports, castles and fascinating medieval towns.
Guests can take advantage of our 20% Brittany Ferries discount for travel to France if required.

Location description
La Vieille Longere is somewhere to slow down and admire the sunset over the forest then star gaze at clear night skies. Relax with a book and a drink - try the local cider; watch the bird life (including green and spotted woodpeckers, common and honey buzzards, kestrels, wood pigeons), or sketch the scenery. Enjoy having time to appreciate nature in these delightful surroundings. Butterflies and wild flowers are everywhere; hare, deer, even wild boar have been spotted by guests.
When you feel re-energised, take a walk around country lanes spotting Plessalas stone crosses, follow the marked forest trails and look out for deer or search for mushrooms. In the valley stroll beside the River Li cross the ancient stepping stones at la Roche aux Cerf and admire the restoration of the original water mill; then dangle a rod in and catch a trout.

The most relaxing holiday you could wish for, lovely helpful owners, spotlessly clean accommodation with everything you could need. This year was our 9th visit!! and we will be returning next year. We especially enjoy lunching at the local restaurants, walking and bird watching and this is the perfect area. If you want the coast Hillion is less than 40 mins by car and has lovely beaches. I can guarantee if you visit once you will go again.
25/5/2017 | Bob and Christine | Location Chesterfield Derbyshire | Gite stayed in La Vielle Longere | Date stayed May 2017
:-) We have taken self catering holidays for many years, in France and the U.K. This has to be one of the best equipped places we have ever stayed in.
The Gite is very comfortable, and the location is superb, lovely unspoiled countryside. The location allows access to the north and south coasts of Brittany without a massive trip.
Penny and Ray made us feel very welcome, we will return.
2/10/2016 | Jeff and Sally Hall | Location Berkshire | Gite stayed in La Vielle Longere | Date stayed Sept 2016
We had a great two weeks in this comfortable and lovely gite. It had everything we needed and more, and the location was restful and peaceful, just what we were looking for. Penny and Ray were great hosts and it was good to know we could call on them if needed.
We had some very enjoyable day trips, the scenery was exceptional and the wine equally so!
31/8/2016 | The Jones Family | Location Plessala, Brittany | Gite stayed in La Vielle Longere | Date stayed 20-27 August 2016
A lovely, peaceful location in a wonderful Longere. Very well equipped, clean and cosy to stay in. Penny was very helpful and we enjoyed our stay very much.
