Our stay at Casa de Malhões was fantastic. The home was clean, spacious, and fully equipped with everything we could possibly need — from a well-stocked kitchen with coffee to an outdoor BBQ area complete with dishes and a sink. The hosts were friendly and very accommodating with our check-in and check-out times, which we truly appreciated. Our kids (2 & 5) loved the small pool — just the right size for a young family. The outdoor space was perfect for gathering and relaxing, though we’d recommend bringing bug spray for the evenings. We only wish we had more time — we would have loved to stay longer! Another thing worth noting is that its off the beaten path - so be prepared to drive down a dirt road and to be 'away' from any neighbours. The drive is well lit and there is cell phone reception at all times so its not so obscure that your off the grid, but it is far enough inland that your in a private space.

I can highly recommend the house and the super friendly welcome by the owners. The cottage is cosy and very well equipped, there is a covered summer kitchen in the courtyard and lovely sunbathing areas on the lawn. Everything is well kept and clean. The house is secluded in the middle of fields, olive groves and vineyards. You can take beautiful walks directly from the house. The very little frequented motorway is easy to reach and you can easily get to other places: e.g. to the many castle ruins near the Spanish border or to the Douro valley. The care by Angelo and his mother-in-law was wonderful! Many thanks for that!

Portugal is a great way to enjoy your holiday and the mountains and area is great. Enough to see and explore in the Trancoso area! 👍

It was such a beautiful stay, in a lovely quiet rural location. The mill was small but perfect for 2. It was well equipped, there is good air con in both bedrooms just above the beds( these aren't shown on the pictures), and theres a lovely little free standing pool, great for cooling off ( again, nit on the vrbo pictures). The outside area is lovely, with a hammock, great parking, the swing! The BBQ and pizza oven, it was such a beautiful place I dont want to over egg it, in case it became too popular, but, we loved it! It is remote, so I guess not for all, but that get away was right for us
