Casa dos Invernos

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We stayed here for 4 weeks and it was absolutely worth the 24-hour drive from the Netherlands! The village itself is beautiful, authentic, and full of medieval charm, surrounded by stunning nature and mountains. The location is perfect, close to the border between Portugal and Spain, so you can easily enjoy both countries and cultures. A supermarket is just a short drive away, and there are lots of lovely towns and places to visit within driving distance. For us, it was the ideal base to explore the area. The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay. There is air conditioning in both bedrooms and the living room, which was very easy to use and much appreciated during warm days. The kitchen is fully equipped with pots, pans, cutlery, a dishwasher, microwave, fridge, freezer, and everything else you might need. Having two bathrooms was also a big plus. There are two cozy sitting areas, including one at the back of the house with a beautiful view of the garden. The garden is absolutely gorgeous, large, peaceful, and full of beautiful flowers and trees. There are several cherry trees, two fig trees, an apple tree, a walnut tree, and an almond tree. If you’re lucky, you may even get to enjoy some of the fruit! The swimming pool was wonderful and perfect for cooling off and relaxing while listening to the birds. There is a lovely outdoor dining area, a comfortable lounge area, and additional lounge chairs by the pool for relaxing in the sun. A big bonus for dog owners: the entire garden is fenced, so your dog can safely run around and play freely. One small tip: if you have a wide car, be extra careful when entering the property and driving through the village, as some roads are quite narrow. Using your car cameras or having someone guide you can be very helpful. We took the turn at the entrance gate incorrectly on our first day and a sharp stone near the gate caused a tear in one of our tyres.

Everything was great. No complains

La casa está súper cuidada y limpia, tiene absolutamente de todo. Se encuentra en un pueblito muy tranquilo y el anfitrión es muy atento y detallista.

Todo fue perfecto

Muita tranquilidade na envolvente da casa. Espaços limpos e cuidados. Regras da casa bem definidas. Anfitrião muito disponível e simpático. Santiago de Compostela e São Francisco de Assis foram um extra que nos fez sentir em casa. Apesar do frio, os quartos têm climatização e o ambiente fica acolhedor.

A água quente, num inverno rigoroso, escasseou. Somos uma família de 5 e sentimos dificuldade em ter água quente para mais de dois duches seguidos.

Lo mejor, la tranquilidad que se respiraba. Solo se escuchaban los pájaros.

Todo estuvo a la altura de una magnífica escapada en pareja.
