Excelente casa, melhor do que aparenta nas fotografias! Lugar muito sossegado e excelente para quem procura paz e natureza. O Proprietário da casa é muito acessível e amigável! Por fim, os seus cãopanheiros são umas doçuras e para quem gosta de animais como nós deterrem-se com eles! Gostamos muito e aconselhamos.
