"The animals, including the Peacocks. The staff were great."
"Nothing"
"I loved the environment, the villa itself, the views, the animals, the amazing breakfast delivered each morning and the cozy fireplace!"
"Aucun."
"An incredibly cozy villa. We stayed during cold, rainy weather and it was still very pleasant. The fireplace, the spotless cleanliness, and everything you need to cook made it perfect. The hosts are very kind, and the breakfast is wonderful. Peacocks and other animals add a special charm. A perfect place to escape from everything and enjoy nature and comfort. We would be happy to come back."

"We stayed for five days. It was really nice and cozy place. The pool area was really nice and apartment still had some privacy in the yard. Breakfast was super good, some good bread, cheese, fruits and stuff. Location was quite near to some good restaurants and nice beaches. Car definitely needed."
"Nothing special to mention. Electricity went down couple of times when we arrived, but they were able to fix the problems. Cutlery and frying pans could have been better, as we wanted to do some of the food ourselves."
"Wonderful people, quiet location, great beaches ⛱️"

"Clean and perfect for resting, the room has everything you need"
Leonardo Sol Dourado
"The location -walking distance to the beach was great. Peaceful atmosphere, very chill. Very well equipped with everything you need. Magnificent views from the room. Friendly staff, although it was off-season so everything was a little slow."
"Very nice place. Very quiet, in the middle of horses. It was so nice to sit on the veranda and soak in the atmosphere. The veranda is also very nicely sheltered from the wind."
Therese SeteQuintas
"Quiet, clean, comfy, friendly, good breakfast that has everything one could think of. Hikers of the fisherman trail should consider the small detour to reach this outstanding place. We hitched there and the very friendly hosts drove us back the next morning (~2km)."
Tobias Monte do Papa Leguas
"Cosy room.in a traditional old farm building. The table by the swimming pool had a fabulous vista down the valley to Vizela and beyond; perfect for watching the sunset directly ahead whilst bats fly around and sipping the delicious wine made by the family. We regret not bringing some home! The owner went the extra mile for us, for example taking our laundry and ironing even in the middle of a heatwave"
Graham Quinta Da Longra
"The place is nice and cozy and the host is really sweet. The kitchen is small but well equipped, everything is exceptionally clean. The shower is terrific! This was exactly what we needed after the day long walk."
