A piscina é espetacular, grande, com exposição solar de manhã ao fim do dia o que faz com que a água esteja sempre morna. As fotos no site não mostram tudo nem fazem justiça à propriedade, que é muito melhor do que anunciada. Uma palavra de apreço para a Sra.

Rien ne manque. Côté jardin il est immense avec une très jolie piscine. La propriétaire Ana Teresa est à l'écoute et disponible; elle n'habite pas sur place. Les environs sont très campagne, il y a une grande surface à 15 km. La ville de Porto est à 1 heure de voiture, c'est une sortie à ne pas rater (nous y sommes allés 2 fois).

Garden was nice but in parts unsafe for children. Directions to the property were poor; when we eventually found it, no-one was there. Fortunately we found a neighbour who contacted the owner's representative, and we gained entry about an hour later. The house had not been prepared, not cleaned etc. The bed arrangements were unsatisfactory: the 'master' bedroom had two single beds pushed together - I have never slept in such an uncomfortable bed. Three of the single beds were on upstairs landings, and so children did not get to sleep easily. The kitchen was very poorly equipped - no bread knife, no cereal bowls, no wine glasses, to name but a few. The downstairs toilet did have a shower (as advertised), but it was full of 'stuff', which wasn't cleared out until several days after our arrival. The outdoor pool was super, but no cleaning equipment was provided, and it was very difficult to get anyone to do anything about it. A poolside room which was part-built lacked safety fencing, resulting in an unprotected sheer drop of about 4 metres. The grass needed cutting when we arrived and it was not done until halfway through our two-week stay. I was in frequent contact, by email, with the owner, who lives in Switzerland; none of his his local representatives spoke English, so we had to get by in French, as we don't speak Portuguese. There was a complete lack of information about the area, or shops, doctors, etc. Two of the owner's relatives, who did speak English, came by to try and help. They were quite shocked at the state of the property and lack of welcome. The final straw came on our morning of departure - cleaners arrived shortly after 8am, and by 9am three of their children were using the pool!! This is a beautiful area of Portugal and despite the disappointments of the property we really enjoyed our holiday. But in several respects it was unsuitable/unsafe for children, and we wouldn't consider staying there again. ##### Anne C.

Das Haus ist normal ausgestattet und die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich. Da es sich um ein bewirtschaftetes Gut handelt, kann es allerdings sein, dass plötzlich Arbeitskräfte durch den Garten laufen - es ist also nichts für Leute, die nackt in der Sonne liegen wollen. ##### Nadja B.

Nous avons passé une semaine extraordinaire dans cette grande et chaleureuse maison. Le décor est époustouflant; le gîte est entouré de vignes et le terrain offre de superbes points de vue sur les environs. Nous avons bien profité de la piscine privée ainsi que de la charmante cour arrière. La maison offre également une salle de jeu en annexe que les enfants ont beaucoup appréciée tout comme ils ont aimé rendre visite aux animaux de la ferme qui se trouve seulement à quelques minutes à pied. L'endroit est idéal pour tous ceux qui veulent se ressourcer et profiter des charmes de la campagne tout en ayant facilement accès à de grandes villes (Porto est à 100 km!). Bref, nous retournerions dans cette maison et la recommandons chaudement. En fait, notre seul regret est de ne pas avoir pu y demeurer plus longtemps! ##### Élise G.

Gros coup de coeur pour cette magnifique maison située dans un décor époustouflant. Vous aurez accès à des lieux magnifiques et paisibles tout en étant à distance raisonnable des grandes villes (Porto est à 100 km environ). Le meilleur des deux mondes! Nous recommandons chaudement cet endroit. Notre seule regret est de n'avoir pas pu y rester plus longtemps! ##### Élise G.
