Enjoy all the comforts of home at Ker Joseph, a gîte (rural holiday rental) just minutes from Brittany’s beautiful and rugged northern coastline! Whether your game is enjoying fun on the beach (we’re just 16 minutes away from the nearest beach, which also boasts the highest cliffs on Brittany’s coastline!), going on scenic walking and cycling trails, exploring the local historical landmarks and cultural attractions, sampling the local cuisine or just kicking back and listening to the relaxing sounds of the countryside, Ker Joseph is the ideal place to spend your holidays in Northern Brittany.
​
Located in a quiet, green setting in Gommenec’h, a small rural Breton village, Ker Joseph is the perfect pied-à-terre for exploring the local attractions, unwinding and spending quality family time.
​
Measuring approx. 80 m2 (861 sq. ft.), Ker Joseph sits on a large, well-maintained property. Once a cottage that housed the gardener who maintained the grounds generations ago, Stephen and Ben completely renovated it in 2023. It now features a bedroom, a mezzanine with two beds, a bathroom with shower and a well-equipped kitchen. A washing machine, dryer, parking space and a secure space to store your bikes are available for your use.
​
The gîte is also equipped with child-friendly amenities (play yard, high chair, baby bathtub, outdoor playhouse) and the entire property is surrounded by a wall to ensure the safety of your little ones. There are also two playgrounds within short walking distance.
​
Benoît and Stephen, the owners who live on the premises, will be delighted to host you and advise you on what the region has to offer.
​
If you have any queries, don't hesitate to contact us either in French or English (Stephen is a native English speaker). We will be happy to answer all your questions.

The Village of Gommenec'h
Tradition holds that Saint Keu (Saint Guy) founded a Celtic monastery which became Gommenec'h parish.
​
The name Gommenec'h comes from the Breton "gou" (under) and "menec'h" (monks), or "under the dependence of the monks". Its name in Breton is Gouanac'h.
​
Gommenec'h is bordered by four rivers: the Leff (formerly the border between Trégor and Goëlo, two of the nine traditional provinces of Brittany), the Gouazel, the Roz and the Goas Mab.
Gommenec'h sits on the Boucle Glazik cycling route.
