Penacova was stunning. Thankyou Silvia 😊 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 14 nights in Aug 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Maja K. 5 Aug 2018 #### Fanastiskt hus, med fantastisk värdinna Ett enormt stort och härligt hus långt ut på landet. Den stora verandan under tak och det svala inomhusklimatet gav skön omväxling och bra nattsömn. Silvia är en fantastisk värdinna med perfekt fingertoppskänsla. Möjligen ska man veta om att huset ligger så att man måste ha bil för att kunna handla och utföra ärenden. ##### Maja K.
