We absolutely adored this quaint and charming house! It is the perfect getaway nestled in the wine region with close proximity to the city. Our kids loved sleeping in the loft, playing with Kim the cat, and running around the yard. Ana was the most hospitable host, helping us with places to go and booking a private chef at the house for a wonderful family meal. The place is spacious and provided an excellent environment for our family and friends! I’d come back here in a heartbeat! ##### Stephanie W. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robyn S. 16 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A hidden gem! The property more than exceeded our expectations, if anything I don’t think the online listing does it justice. We were a group of 9, including young children, and it was the perfect size for everyone to have their own space but the indoor and outdoor communal areas were great for getting together for mealtimes or chilling in the evening as a big group. Ana was a wonderful host, nothing was too much trouble and she was always available to assist, even ordering our Portugese meal for us. Also highly recommend the wine tasting experience, we had a great evening. The grounds are stunning and the pool is nice and private. It really was everything we wanted and more. We are already planning our next visit! ##### Robyn S. Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tory P. 16 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Exceeded our expectations! This property greatly exceeded our expectations! It was a wonderful stay for our extended family of 13. The drive to the property winds through narrow charming lanes and around a vineyard. Once through the gate, we didn't want to leave. The structure is full of character and story, and the landscape is just as great. The experience was enhanced by the sweet smell of flowering plants, church bells in the distance, and cooling breezes. Our kids loved the volleyball net and swimming pool. Adults loved the terrace and dining underneath the vines and twinkle lights. The bedrooms and dining rooms are nicely furnished and comfortable also. The property is well equipped and clean, and the manager, Ana, was so helpful with check-in and local information, easily accessible with questions. We were so charmed by our stay. Thank you! ##### Tory P. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anas M. 19 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing !
