What if your next stage on the GR65 or your next nature weekend took place in a former 15th-century presbytery, overlooking the Upper Allier gorges?
In the heart of the village of Saint-Privat-d'Allier, on the first iconic stage of the GR65 – Via Podiensis, and only 20 minutes from Le Puy-en-Velay, the Goimard family opens the doors of a charming stone building, where you can relax, sleep well and leave with a light heart.
A former presbytery steeped in history
Overlooking the gorges, La Goimardise welcomes you in an exceptional historical setting, between heritage, preserved nature and green tourism in Haute-Loire.
Our accommodations:
A guest room ( 2 people ): an intimate, warm, timeless interlude.
A guesthouse (up to 5 people ): ideal for pilgrims, small groups, families or friends (overnight stays, weekends, weeks). ( Opening October 2026 )
Whether you are a pilgrim departing from Puy-en-Velay, a lover of slow tourism, a couple, a family, friends, or a sportsman, you will find here a place conducive to rejuvenation, conviviality and the discovery of local flavors.
