Lovely, relaxing, unique location
We had a very relaxing time, and enjoyed ourselves doing very little, sometimes just sitting out on the veranda watching the trees and the day go by. Ellen is a lovely host, and made us feel very welcome.

Good basw
Overall Treetops is a lovely place to stay. Recommend not visiting out of season as local restaurants weren't open and travelling to other towns along narrow roads ar night is not ideal. The owner, Ellen, was very good providing details of places to visit in the area. Great location is you want to some walking as close to Serre D'Arga National Park. The location is very quiet and a nice place to escape the rat race.

Words cannot convey the beauty of Treetops!
A superior accommodation and location high above the beautiful village of Covas. Super comfortable bed and living areas, indoor and out, including barbecue. Fully equipped kitchen with staples provided. Hostess Ellen is like an old family friend immediately, yet never intruded on our stay. She provided excellent tour advice and directions to “secret” spots in the area. Welcoming community and restaurants, lots to see and do. Return each day to Treetops was like arriving in our own private sanctuary complete with a canary aviary! Seemed like the most pleasant spot on earth while we were there!

Amazing!
Our first visit to Portugal and it couldn't have been better. A warm welcome from Ellen, Rafa, Nina and Pumpkin! The location is absolutely stunning, everywhere we went was so picturesque. Lots of great recommendations for places to visit and local restaurants. It was so peaceful and the garden was totally private. I slept like a log the whole time, thoroughly recharged my batteries! Thanks to Ellen for her wonderful hospitality. Maybe see you again..

Wonderful stay at Tree Tops
We were delighted to stay at Tree Tops having had to cancel last year. It was everything and more that we'd hoped for. The accommodation has a lot of character and is clean and well equipped. It is in a beautiful location surrounded by trees on the border of the Serra D'Arga national park. Their are stunning views and lovely walks plus lots of historic towns to visit nearby. Also with easy access to the coast. The owner Ellen is lovely and couldn't be more helpful

A fantastic find
The photos do not do this place justice - it is a fabulous cottage with wonderful views across the valley through the trees. We were welcomed with wine from the local region and every morning and evening we were greeted by Ellen's super friendly dog, Rafa. It is a great location for exploring the beautiful Minho area.

Oasis in the treetops
Ellen has truly made a remarkable getaway in Portugal. Her treetop home is amazing. The entire property is like paradise with flowing fountains, flowers, fruit trees, and so much more! Ellen was a most attentive and gracious host. Knowing we were arriving later in the evening she had stocked the kitchen with juice, milk, fresh eggs from her chickens, fresh honey from her bees, plums, butter, bread and two bottles of wine to make sure we would have food for breakfast in the morning. Ellen was very quick to respond to texts ( which was a good thing when we missed a turn and needed directions, which she gave us step by step)! She warmly greeted us along with her pup Raffa. Ellen’s “Green Bible” helped us navigate and her restaurant recommendations were spot on. O’ Dias was our favorite! The best steak we have ever had and so cheap! The pool was a welcome relief from the heat. By the pool Ellen shared her story of how she ended up in Portugal, which is truly amazing. She is an incredible lady. Our stay from start to finish was wonderful and we would definitely stay again.
