Lugar bonito
Fomos acolhidos pela dona Arminda e o senhor Antonio, pessoas muito simpaticas. Fomos muito bem acolhidos. A casa onde nos ficamos se situava no rês do chao. Pois é uma casa onde pode haver outra reserva nas mesmas datas. Mas os espaços sao totalmente independentes. A casa é muito bem equipada, limpinha e fresquinha. Os equipamentos exteriores sao excelentes (piscina e churrasqueira 5 estrelas). O unico premonor que nos incomodou foi de estar um cao a solta que nao estava descrito na descriçao da casa quando reservamos. Tambem, uma cauçao é dada a chegada, mas nao é devolvida na hora do check-out, apenas 24h depois. Passamos os dias muito fixes, voltava a reservar

Local excelente para descansar
A localização é muito boa. Sítio sossegado mas com bons acessos e não muito longe da auto-estrada. A D. Arminda e o Sr. António form muito simpáticos e disponíveis. Os espaços interiores são melhores do que o que parecem nas fotos.

Très chouette endroit et accueil excellent!
Belle région, de belles balades dans l'arrière-pays, et proximité de Guimarães et Braga. L'accueil fut très sympathique, et le jardin du gîte est superbe, surtout la très belle et grande piscine.

Super séjour maison magnifique
Nous avons séjourné une semaine au mois d'août avec nos deux enfants, la maison est vraiment agréable, spacieuse, très bien entretenu et très bien équipée. Il y a tout ce qui faut. L'accueil est génial, les propriétaires sont d'une grande gentillesse, présent pour toutes questions et discret à la fois. Les extérieurs sont magnifiques, un beau jardin bien entretenu, une grande cour fermée et une piscine et un espace pool house géant ! La piscine est immense et très bien entretenue, l'éclate pour les enfants et les plus grands. La maison est facile d'accès à mois d'une heure de porto et dans le village voisin (5 minutes), on trouve toutes les commodités. Location à recommander.

Une superbe maison dans un cadre idyllique
Dans un petit village rural du Nord du Portugal, au détour d'une route sinueuse, vous trouverez un grand portail vert, et au delà , vous découvrirez une magnifique maison en grosses pierres de granit, un jardin très bien entretenu, une piscine de rêve, et un charmant couple de propriétaires ! Allez-y les yeux fermés ! C'est l'endroit idéal pour des vacances au calme, dans une très belle région où vous pourrez découvrir Porto, Guimares, Braga, la Vallée du Douro, les montagnes du parc d'Alvao, etc... Un grand merci à M. et Mme Andrade pour leur accueil chaleureux à notre arrivée. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié leur petit apéritif du dimanche soir, où ils nous ont gentiment donné tous les conseils nécessaires pour visiter les environs. Les enfants ont adoré la grande piscine et son plongeoir ! La location est confortable, bien équipée et parfaitement isolée car nous n'avons pas souffert de la chaleur la nuit. Près de la piscine, il y a un préau avec tables et bancs et un incroyable barbecue... Parfait pour prendre ses repas près de la piscine. Bref, nous avons passé un excellent séjour et en garderons un très bon souvenir.

Hôtes chaleureux qui demeurent sur place. Ils sont très accueillants, prévenants et près à nous aider. Très beau site. Logement très grand avec cour intérieure et toutes les commodités. Piscine énorme et vraiment agréable. Situé à quelques kilomètres seulement de l'autoroute et d'une grande épicerie. C'est un emplacement idéal pour rayonner dans le nord du Portugal.
