We were a group of 10 family members including a baby, 6 year old and 11 and 14 year old. We all felt we had our own privacy and there were lots of places to eat and chill out around the property. The photos do not do this place justice! Margarida was a wonderful host and was on hand on the phone if we needed her but allowed us our privacy at the same time. We would love to return! ##### Amy H.

La casa es muy cómoda, cuenta con todo lo necesario para pasar unos días de descanso. Las habitaciones son amplias, los colchones comodísimos y están muy limpias. La cocina cuenta con menaje, cafetera, lavavajillas y todo lo necesario para cocinar cómodamente. Pero lo mejor es el exterior: un jardín cuidadísimo, varias zonas de asientos para relajarse, parrilla y mesa grande para comer fuera, parque para niños y piscina. Además, tiene varios juegos con los que pasar la tarde: pingpong, canasta, billar, dardos... Desde luego, esta propiedad merece un 10\. Ojalá pudiésemos disfrutarla más días. Mención aparte para Margarida, que ha sido muy amable y atenta en todo momento. Muchas gracias. ##### AIDA V.

The total setting, innside-outside is a perfect get together place for up to 16 people. The combination of stone and dark wood, tails and private furnitures. The owner gives you a spacious private home with tons of Portuguese charm. We where four families with children, all related and loved every minute of a fantastic week. Everywhere you look, close or far, it is all beautiful landscape or charming houses. The pool is good for a long swim and dives. The outdoor barbecue kitchen ads to the evening ambiance. Nice beds, clean and beautiful bathrooms in all seven quarters. When we arrived, fresh fruits in all colors waited for us. The owner , Donna Margaride, sure gave everything.
