Excelente estadia, mais uma vez

Foi a segunda vez que ficámos 1 semana nesta propriedade e a nossa estadia voltou a ser excelente. A simpatia e disponibilidade da Sra. Ana, a calma e paz usufruídas num espaço bem cuidado, restaurantes a poucos minutos de carro com comida local, genuína e deliciosa, o vinho verde (branco e tinto) produzido localmente de muito boa qualidade - este e outros são motivos que nos levam a ansiar regressar no próximo ano.

Fim de semana em família

A quinta é espetacular, com uma área fantástica. Estava tudo dentro dos conformes e a casa tem tudo que é necessário. Pena que só podíamos ir fim de semana, pois com o tempo maravilhoso que estava queríamos mais 😁 A D. Ana é super atenciosa e disponível. Experiência a repetir com certeza!

Perfeito para paz, sossego e relaxamento

Casa confortável, fresca mesmo com temperaturas exteriores de 35 graus. Cozinha bem equipada com tudo o que era necessário para nós. Áreas circundantes perfeitas para refeições ao ar livre, descansar, ler em sossego, ouvir apenas a natureza. A piscina é espetacular, grande, com exposição solar de manhã ao fim do dia o que faz com que a água esteja sempre morna. As fotos no site não mostram tudo nem fazem justiça à propriedade, que é muito melhor do que anunciada. Uma palavra de apreço para a Sra. Ana Teresa, que é uma simpatia, explicou a história da propriedade e deixou-nos extremamente à vontade.

vacances réussies

propriété magnifique - maison sur 3 niveaux, nous étions 4 et n'en avons utilisé qu'un. Rien ne manque. Côté jardin il est immense avec une très jolie piscine. La propriétaire Ana Teresa est à l'écoute et disponible; elle n'habite pas sur place. Les environs sont très campagne, il y a une grande surface à 15 km. La ville de Porto est à 1 heure de voiture, c'est une sortie à ne pas rater (nous y sommes allés 2 fois). Et la vallée de la Doura est également une sortie très agréable. Je recommande

Maravillosa casa

Hemos pasado unos días en familia en una casa hermosa, muy bien cuidada, en un entorno inmejorable. Un lugar altamente recomendable. Para disfrutar de la naturaleza. La piscina increíble y alejada de la casa, lo cual es una seguridad para los niños. Destacar el trato de Teresa, impecable.Esperamos repetir!.

Calme et cadre verdoyant

Accueil agréable, joli terrain, grande piscine et aménagements réalisés récemment. Nous avons apprécié la vue et le calme, bercé juste par l'eau de source et les grenouilles. Le lieu nécessite néanmoins un véhicule qui ne craint pas les chemins caillouteux.

Havre de paix.

Un véritable coup de coeur pour la villa Franca! Un acceuil chaleureux dans un domaine merveilleux! Entre la piscine naturelle la piscine turquoise toute neuve la source la rivière le jardin bucolique et le cadre environnant vous ne serez plus où donner de la tête. La maison est très bien équipée et très fraîche. La propriétaire est très généreuse et sympathique toujours inquiéte de notre confort. Mes enfants mon mari mon gros chien et moi même nous vous recommandons d'aller rêver à la villa Franca.

4/10 Poor

Property was 'down at heel'. Garden was nice but in parts unsafe for children.

Directions to the property were poor; when we eventually found it, no-one was there. Fortunately we found a neighbour who contacted the owner's representative, and we gained entry about an hour later. The house had not been prepared, not cleaned etc. The bed arrangements were unsatisfactory: the 'master' bedroom had two single beds pushed together - I have never slept in such an uncomfortable bed. Three of the single beds were on upstairs landings, and so children did not get to sleep easily. The kitchen was very poorly equipped - no bread knife, no cereal bowls, no wine glasses, to name but a few. The downstairs toilet did have a shower (as advertised), but it was full of 'stuff', which wasn't cleared out until several days after our arrival. The outdoor pool was super, but no cleaning equipment was provided, and it was very difficult to get anyone to do anything about it. A poolside room which was part-built lacked safety fencing, resulting in an unprotected sheer drop of about 4 metres. The grass needed cutting when we arrived and it was not done until halfway through our two-week stay. I was in frequent contact, by email, with the owner, who lives in Switzerland; none of his his local representatives spoke English, so we had to get by in French, as we don't speak Portuguese. There was a complete lack of information about the area, or shops, doctors, etc. Two of the owner's relatives, who did speak English, came by to try and help. They were quite shocked at the state of the property and lack of welcome. The final straw came on our morning of departure - cleaners arrived shortly after 8am, and by 9am three of their children were using the pool!! This is a beautiful area of Portugal and despite the disappointments of the property we really enjoyed our holiday. But in several respects it was unsuitable/unsafe for children, and we wouldn't consider staying there again.

Séjour très agréable

Le site extérieur est magnifique et très bien entretenu: 2 piscines l une de 13 m de long somptueuse et l autre naturelle . Un vrai havre de paix . L accueil des hôtes fut chaleureuse et sympathique. Un bémol : l intérieur du gîte austere et sombre qui manque d éclairage et de modernité.

Sehr schön gelegen

Die Lage ist herrlich, das Grundstück weitläufig und wunderschön. Das Haus ist normal ausgestattet und die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich. Da es sich um ein bewirtschaftetes Gut handelt, kann es allerdings sein, dass plötzlich Arbeitskräfte durch den Garten laufen - es ist also nichts für Leute, die nackt in der Sonne liegen wollen.
