Location & area
In the Breton language, Le Gorvello means the Forge.
The Templars founded the village around 1150. They had established a headquarters at Carentoir and owned about 3000 hectares of land in the surrounding region. In order to correctly operate and manage these holdings they set up twelve strategically placed strongholds of which Le Gorvello was one. Judging by the fact that their first construction was a chapel, the surrounding countryside must have already been rather populated.
During the 16th century, the Hospitaliers de St. John of Jerusalem, successors to the Templars, incorporated the original chapel into the construction of the village church that stands today where the chapel once was.
Le Gorvello always was, and still is today, an agricultural village. Until the beginning of the 20th century, it was also a center of cottage industry weaving in linen and hemp.
Administratively, Le Gorvello is located in two communes, Theix and Sulniac, the boundary being the stream that runs through the village.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
