Very pretty, homely and well equipped natural stone house in a wonderful hillside location.

I can highly recommend the house and the super friendly welcome by the owners. The house is cosy and very well equipped. The bed is big and very comfortable, the spacious kitchen has everything you need, the bathroom is modern. Everything is well kept and very clean. The house is situated in a paradisiacal, well-kept garden with fruit trees, vegetable garden, a chicken coop and a garden pond fed by a stream. We were allowed to harvest fruit and vegetables. From the beautiful covered terrace you have a fantastic view into the valley. The care by the owners was unique. Many thanks for that!

We had a fantastic holiday. Fatima was very welcoming - and thank you for the wine - it was our first taste of the vinha verde from the region. The accommodation was perfect. The gardens were lovely - very very pretty with great views from the property. We loved being able to pick and eat the fresh produce grown in the garden - tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, courgettes. The area is very pretty - lots of hills and river valleys and lots of things to do within an easy drive of the property. A lovely place to relax. Thank you Fatima.

Net verblijf met alles aanwezig

We hebben dit huisje gebruikt om de eerste vijf etappes van de camino Portugues te lopen. We hadden een goed verblijf. Alles aanwezig in het huisje. We konden er na onze looptocht goed rusten. De dame die ons ontvang en later afscheid nam was zeer vriendelijk. Al met al een goed verblijf in Portugal. Nu naar Spanje voor de resterende voettochten naar Santiago.

Kleines Haus in wunderschönem Garten

Das Haus ist nicht gross, verfügt aber über alles, was zwei Personen benötigen. Die Küche ist groß und gut ausgestattet. Schöner Blick von der Terrasse in das Tal des Lima und die Berge. Das schönste ist die Lage in dem grossen gepflegten Garten, mit zwei Wasserstellen und schönen Bäumchen und Blumen. Wir waren sehr zufrieden.

Dit huis is werkelijk een toppertje. Idyllisch gelegen, grote groente- en siertuin (je hoeft zelf geen groente te kopen, want je mag alles gebruiken uit de tuin), schitterend uitzicht en zeer hartelijke huiseigenaren. Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien, zeer complete keukenuitrusting, blinkend schoon en ruim van opzet. Fatima spreekt Frans, haar man Duits en op verzoek kookt Fatima een Portugese maaltijd die ze dan ook komt brengen (uiteraard tegen betaling). Zeker de moeite waard om te doen. Wij hebben ons 2x laten verwennen. Ook de omgeving is prachtig. Natuurlijk Ponte de Lima, Porto en ander fraaie plaatsen. Wij hebben ook nog een uitstapje gemaakt naar Moncao aan de Minho. En overal lekkere wijn en port. Een absolute aanrader!

Alles wat al eerder werd geschreven over Casita da Lavandeira, beantwoordt aan de realiteit en is geenszins overdreven. Deze cottage is dan ook een absolute aanrader voor mensen die houden van authenticiteit, natuur en rust. Een bijzonder dankwoord aan Fatima en haar familie, die ons met zoveel warmte en gastvrijheid hebben ontvangen.
