As someone else mentioned before, the lack of a living room needs to be pointed out. When the weather is nice, this is not a big issue but during rainy days it is. Joao, Susana and their assistant are caring Hosts who want you to have a perfect stay and are always available. ##### Gregor L. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nuno M.

Cadre très agréable au milieu des plantations d'oliviers et de myrtilliers. Une zone pas très touristique mais avec des choses à voir pour animer le séjour... entre deux moments au bord de la piscine ! Nous avons passé un très bon séjour. Propriétaires sympathiques et nous recommandons également leur huile d'olive ! ##### Olivier P. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Manuel F. Jul 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Tranquillité Endroit super tranquille pour passer des vacances reposantes. En contre bas, nous avons eu la possibilité d'aller cueillir de très bonnes myrtilles sur le terrain de Joao. Nous n'avons manqué de rien et Joao et Susanna ont été à l'écoute pour s'assurer que nous passions de bonnes vacances. La Quinta est composée de deux appartements en bas et d'une autre location au dessus. Nous pensions être seuls mais nos voisins n'ont pas été dérangeants compte tenu de l'espace extérieur. Nous avons tout de même pu profiter de la Quinta en famille, seuls pendant une semaine grâce à la gentillesse de Joao qui a bloqué les réservations sur la deuxième semaine. Concernant les environs, beaucoup de choses à voir : La Sierra da Estrella, le marché de Trancoso le vendredi, Guarda et Viseu. Bref, nous avons passé les vacances que nous voulions et nous aurions bien aimé rester plus longtemps pour profiter de ce merveilleux pays (tant pour la gastronomie, les paysages que les gens). Un grand merci à Susanna et à Joao pour leur gentillesse. Amicalement, Virginie, Mélanie et Manuel ##### Manuel F.

Superbe piscine, avec un paysage très beau devant soi. Un endroit où l'on vie dehors grace aux terasses et au climat 😉 Des belles ballades dans la Serra de Estralla, au pont d'arouca et au Passadiços do Paiva. De jolies produits locaux proposés par Joao et Suzana (huile l'olive qu'il fabrique, miel, vin rouge et vin blanc) Ils sont très sympa et disponible. ##### Claude L.

De resto, no verão deve ser muito bom para aproveitar a piscina. De referir a gatinha, malhadinha, que era também muito simpática! ##### laura D.

Toda a área envolvente é muito bonita, a casa está muito bem cuidada com áreas generosas. A vista é dislumbrante. É o ideal para passar umas excelentes férias com a familía e/ou amigos. Tanto o Sr. João, como a esposa, são pessoas muito atenciosas e preocupadas com o nosso bem estar. Uma experiência a repetir sem dúvida. ##### Pedro F.
