Das Haus ist sehr schön und ruhig gelegen, direkt neben der großen Casa do General. Es ist angenehm eingerichtet und hat eine sehr große Terrasse zum parkähnlichen Garten hin, der sich in mehreren Stufen anschließt. Das unten liegende Schlafzimmer (mit Bad) war im Juni noch etwas kühl und feucht. Das wird sich im Sommer sicherlichbessern. Insgesamt haben wir den Aufenthalt zwischen Rosen und Zitronenbäumen sehr genossen.

Tolles Objekt
Ein wirkliches schönes Objekt, dass wir bewohnt haben. Das kleine Haus hat eine sehr interessante Raumaufteilung auf verschiedenen Ebenen. Das große und nutzbare Grudstück ist wie ein alter Garten oder Park. Man schlendert herum und schaut auf Blühendes, Wachsendes. Ein Wohlfühlort.

Beautiful cottage and garden
Everything as beautiful and well kept as seen on the pictures. Very friendly and helpful host. Only short drive to the broad sandy beach of Afife. Good spot for day trips to places near by. Cottage is situated in a small village. Very quiet area. Small supermarket and restaurants close by. There is a bigger house on the same grounds, which is also rented out, but enough space for everybody to keep your privacy.

Entspannter Urlaub in Nordportugal
Schönes Natursteinhaus mit großer Terasse und riesigem Garten. Man kommt zu Fuss sowohl zum schönen Strand von Afife, kann aber auch in den angrenzenden Bergen wandern, der portugisische Jakobsweg führt direkt am Ort vorbei. An- und Abreise waren unkompliziert und die Gastgeberin sehr freundlich und hilfreich. Wir haben den Urlaub sehr genossen!

Haus mit nordportugiesischem Flair
Dieses kleine Steinhaus ist absolut empfehlenswert, innen neu und geschmackvoll renoviert bietet es ortstypische Architektur mit ruhigem Ambiente und liegt angenehm abgeschieden in einer großen gut gepflegten Gartenanlage neben einem herrschaftlichen Haupthaus. Afife ist ein idealer Standort zur Erkundung der Atlantikküste sowie des Hinterlandes, Porto ist über die Autobahn in weniger als einer Stunde erreichbar. Die Eigentümerin Mafalda ist eine perfekte Gastgeberin, freundlich und hilfreich, immer erreichbar und ansonsten unsichtbar.
Ich hoffe an diesem Ort erneut Ferien verbringen zu können
