Fantastic place and hosts!

This was one of the highlights of our trip to Portugal. Not only the rooms were very comfortable and clean, but the owners made us truly feel at home. We had a lovely dinner in town the night we arrived, and met them at reception for some of their homemade fruit liquor and a lovely chat in front of the fireplace with the whole family. Breakfast was fantastic! They offered a great variety of traditional homemade breads made in an oven used for many generations, artisanal cheeses, jams, biscuits and cookies that were absolutely delicious! Our family really appreciates good food, specially when it is done with so much love and care. It was a great feast! Our ten year old walked around the property all morning by himself, filming and photographing everything! They showed him how to feed the sheep and it was the highlight of his day! He could call them by name and have them eat from his hand. Memorable! We can not wait to visit them again in the Spring. Very special place and hosts!

Espaço super agradável

Uma ótima experiência. Tudo excelente desde a simpatia dos proprietários, passando pela limpeza e pelo conforto das instalações, do pequeno almoço e dos queijos muito muito muito bons, feitos na quinta. Vou voltar com toda a certeza, quer seja com a família quer seja com os amigos do BTT para explorar alguns trilhos da zona.
