House Natural Park on the slopes of Serra da Estrela
It is located in a natural park, known for its river beach of Duke Ferdinand, very pleasant place, with a fairly extensive body of water and a vegetable rich and diverse environment. The beach environment is characterized by a vast forest mantle, which makes the pleasant walks, bike or all terrain bike. The House is part of a collection of buildings typical of the region, associated with flour mills powered by the force of the river. Even today you can see these buildings and also near the mill and the wheels of mills.

Über das Domizil kann ich leider kaum was sagen, da wir dort nicht übernachtet haben. Leider war beim Buchen beim Anbieter etwas schiefgelaufen, so dass wir im Endeffekt -dank eines sehr engagierten Freundes und Familienkreis des Anbieters eine andere Unterkunft ohne eigenen Aufwand erhalten haben. Die war auch passend, auch wenn nicht so idyllisch wie das eigentlich vorgesehene Objekt. Und das liegt wirklich traumhaft schön und macht von außen schon Lust auf drinnen, was wie gesagt, uns leider verwehrt blieb. Aber drei Sterne gibt es trotzdem für die helfenden Hände, die eigentlich 5 Sterne verdient hätten, aber hier geht es ja letztendlich erstmal um das Objekt.
Foi uma estadia óptima, a casa é muito acolhedora ideal para uma família.
A Dna. Teresa é super simpática e disponível
Recomendo seriamente para quem queira disfrutar de uns dias na Serra e descansar
The advertise states the property has a swiming pool witch is not true.
Besides that everything was great

Local simpático
O local é simpático, mas ao contrário do que anunciam, não tem piscina, apenas rio ao lado. A casa é muito típica e gira, mas fica ao lado de um bar que funciona a partir das 22h. A D. Teresa foi muito simpática e atenciosa.
A VRBO não tem a informação correta em termos do preço de aluguer e da piscina.
Foram 5 dias passados no meio da natureza, com ótimos banhos tomados na ribeira mesmo por baixo da casa, água límpida, a casa tinha todas as comunidades necessárias. A D. Teresa foi muito simpática e agradável oferecendo um miminho de boas vindas. Um senão, era a dificuldade de comprar carne fresca, pois só havia 1vez por semana.
A casa é muito acolhedora, super limpa e as camas muito confortaveis. A D. Teresa sempre prestavel recebeu-nos muito bem. Pena só que a praia fluvial não esteja melhor cuidada.
This place is beautiful and peaceful. Hosts were great and it is in a great area. Best to take a phrase book as not many speak English and people appreciate you making an effort.

Casa acogedora en un entorno único
Nos ha encantado la casa. Muy pequeña, pero todo perfecto. La amabilidad de Teresa, insuperable. Estuvo atenta a todo lo que nos hizo falta, y nos regaló un licor de membrillo que aún tengo que probar. Las mandarinas... dulcísimas. En invierno, con el aire acondicionado de la planta superior y la estufa de la inferior es suficiente. Habrá que probar a volver en verano, para bañarnos en las aguas (gélidas) de arroyo que pasa a su lado.

Casa típica muito cosy
Casa típica muito cosy, com a natureza envolvente muito bonita. A casa estava limpa e aguardava-nos o calorzinho da salamandra aquando da nossa chegada à noite. Sitio muito perto dos acessos à Serra da Estrela (Torre). De salientar a simpatia da D. Teresa, que nos recebeu com um miminho caracteristico da zona. Será com certeza uma casa onde iremos voltar.

Um fim de semana a repetir
Passei um fim de semana espetacular com a familia. A D. Teresa é super simpática e atensiosa. A casa estava impecável e correspondia a 100% ao descrito. Muito acolhedora, confortável e simpática, com tudo para passar um inverno aconchegante e quentinho. O exterior é muito agradável, o local é sossegado e muito tranquilo. Os miudos adoraram os passeios que demos pelas redondezas e até conseguimos ver uma lontra, que apressadamente fugiu assim que nos viu. Também é de referir a proximidade da Serra da Estrela, com acessos fáceis. Definitivamente uma experiencia a repetir.

Dépaysement assuré et calme
Nous avons été agréablement surpris du charme du logement, qui bien de très petite taille, est parfaitement adapté pour 2 personnes avec tous les éléments de confort (climatisation à l'étage). Cette ancienne maison de meunier est placée à proximité d'une rivi ère où il fait bon se baigner tant le soleil tape fort à l'heure de midi.
L'endroit est très calme. Le village est à moins d'un quart d'heure à pied.
Thérésa et César, les propriétaires des lieux, nous ont réservé un accueil chaleureux. Leurs conseils sur les idées de villégiature nous ont permis de passer d'excellentes vacances.

Great holidays!
We stayed 6 days in beautiful village of Casegas and we had fantastic time. The house is really lovely and comfortable. Thanks to the owners we felt like at home! They were very helpful and even organized a trip for us so we could explore area around Casegas. Our kids loved the river which is just near the house and they spend half of time playing in the water. We can definitely recommend it and we would love to return some other time! Many thanks for great holidays!

A beautiful place to visit, amazing hospitality
Myself and my girlfriend enjoyed a week in this house set in beautiful Covilha. We were here in January - which meant it could be a little cold at times - but the heating system worked well, though the hot water supply could be problematic. The house was beautiful, a tradtional stone house which has been nicely modernised and was generally very comfortable. It was absolutely spotless on arrival.
What was most notable about our stay was the wonderful hospitality provided by the Marcelino family. They were incredibly friendly and helpful whenever we dealt with them and even gave us some home-grown fruit and vegetables which was a lovely touch.
The local village was also very beautiful and everyone there was extremely friendly to us, though we didn't speak Portuguese (and very few of them spoke any English) The general area is stunning, with loads of pretty villages throughout the mountain roads (which are absolutely terrifying to drive on!) Many thanks for having us, we had a great time.

Paz, beleza natural e simpatia
Começando pelo fim, a simpatia dos proprietários foi inexcedível. A casa e a sua localização correspondiam em tudo ao que fora descrito no anúncio. De facto a realidade excedeu a descrição. Achamos que o local é ideal não só para um casal que procure calma e sossego, mas também para uma família ou grupo de jovens. A localização geográfica permitiu-nos fazer circuitos pelas serras, aldeias e vilas circundantes, que não conhecíamos. Recomendamos e pensamos voltar.

É uma bela casa de pedra rodeada de natureza num ambiente calmo.
O proprietário demonstrou total disponibilidade e simpatia para connosco pelo o qual só temos a dizer de bem.
A repetir!

Calme et reposant
un petit coin très agréable mais surement plus adapté pendant les mois chauds (nous y étions fin octobre) ; un accueil très chaleureux des propriétaires, le logement est parfait pour 2 personnes, nous gardons un très bon souvenir de ce coin charmant du Portugal. Une région superbe à visiter.
