Fantastic portugese experience
This is a beautiful traditional property in the centre of the village and close to everything you need. We were a group of 7 and the large outdoor space and the pool were particularly fantastic for gathering, relaxing and cooking. The house is very comfortable and has everything you need. The owner, Ricardo, is very helpful and goes out of his way to make sure guests have everything they need. Could not recommend it more highly.

Nina's Grandmothers house !
Ricardo was a fantastic host who was always around if you needed any help or just a friendly chat !!
Fantastic villa in a fantastic location , the villa was lovely and clean with everything you require for the perfect holiday !.
The swimming pool was the icing on the cake which kept my children entertained most of the day (Everyday )
There is a fantastic terrace area with barbeque, which we spent every evening till the early hours having a wine or two !
The location itself is within a few yards of all the local bars and restaurants which all serve great food at great prices !
Our family of 6 found Ricardo's villa very comfortable and it felt like home from home .
we will be returning again very soon !
Thank you Ricardo

Chilling out
When we stoot in front of the house we thought... Mmm bit small, but inside and in the garden there was more then enough space. We rented the whole house for our family. The house was clean and it had everything we needed. Our host was friendly and we could ask him everything (even a guitar to play on). We wanted to rest this vacation and we did....no hustle.

Zentrale Lage, gut ausgestattetes traditionelles Haus
Wir verbrachten eine Woche über Ostern mit unseren Kindern zwischen 11 und 0 Jahren in Ricardos Haus. Ricardo ist ein sehr freundlicher und guter Gastgeber. Das Haus ist super gelegen. Alles ist zu Fuß erreichbar. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet und Haus und Gelände sehr großzügig. Der Pool und das Sonnendeck sind toll und auch durch einen Zaun für Nichtschwimmer zu sichern... leider hatten wir großes Pech mit dem Wetter und im Haus war es sehr kühl, da es nicht richtig zu heizen ist.
