The lovely water mill
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

Very nice place
We stayed a week and found the house very modern in terms of amenities and very rustic in terms of architecture. We had never booked a longer stay but we really enjoy the Trancoso area and this proved to be a very handy location. It was great to have the quiet seclusion in the evenings after touring neighboring attractions during the day. Amália and her husband were very accommodating. It was a very pleasant stay.

Very pretty, homely and well-equipped stone cottage in a quiet but convenient location
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!

Geweldige, landelijke locatie
Zeer gastvrij ontvangen door Angelo in dit juweeltje op het prachtige platteland van Portugal. Veel privacy en buitenruimte. Het huisje is authentiek ingericht en van alle gemakken voorzien. Goede uitvalsbasis voor (wandel)tochten en stedenbezoek, zoals naar Guarda, Trancoso (vrijdagmarkt!), Pinhel. Maak een boottocht over de Douro, bezoek Porto, Aveiro, etc: de moeite waard. Eten & drinken is overal heerlijk tegen schappelijke prijzen en de mensen zeer gemoedelijk. Het zwembad bij het huisje was meer dan welkom, omdat het een warme zomer was. Een geweldige ervaring!

christian m.

on y est bien comme chez soi, merci pour cette excellente villégiature coeur d'un vrai Portugal
Maison de caractères tenues aux charmes d'une histoire que les moins de 40 ans ne peuvent pas connaitre. Dans ce coin de campagne, blotti derrière ses épais murs, des meubles anciens, Vous offrent l'hospitalité. Maria Amalia Rodigues reste dévoué pour rendre votre séjour agréable et confortable, elle reste consciencieuse auprès de vous. Elle et ses amis qu'elle ne tardera pas à vous présenter, je pense au Professeur, vous conseillèra en tourisme. Grace à elle nous avons parcouru la campagne marquée par ces impressionnants rochers et ses collines dénudées par de récents incendies meurtriers. Puis, de nombreux authentiques de la Beira ou de l’Espagne proche vous raconteront au détour des vielles ruelles, demeures, églises ou châteaux une histoire mouvementé datant de l'époque des templiers ou napoléonienne. Par conviction religieuse deux sites sont indispensable sont à visiter: Fatima et Lapa. Puis, à 2 petites heures du gîte, les plages de l'océan sauront vous attendre pour passer d'agréables moment du côté de Porto. Pour les amoureux, tout comme à Venise, il existe une ville qui bercera vos cœurs aimant: Aveiro. Comme vous pouvez vous en rendre compte il y a de quoi faire pour meubler son temps libre dans cette région de Trancoso. Le gite est parfaitement décrit dans la présentation faite par les propriétaires. Il est parfaitement équipé mis à par un lave vaisselle qui ne nous a pas manqué. La télévision est là en attendant que vous y branchiez votre décodeur Canal Sat équipé de sa carte à jour que vous n'aurez pas oublié avec vos bagages. Le réseau Wifi fonctionne correctement ainsi que le téléphone portable. L'espace extérieur est grand, fleuri et comporte un appentis dans lequel se trouve un grille ainsi qu'un four à bois pour confectionner vos pizza et grillades. Il faudra, à l'un des Intermarchés du coin, acheter le charbon de bois. A Vila Franca Das Naves, il existe un artisan boucher, Madeiro, qui fait d'excellente viandes, chorizo et autres charcuteries. Il vend le Porto pas plus cher qu’ailleurs. Pour l'excellent huile d'olive que nous vous conseillons, elle est issue de la propriété, comme ces diverses liqueurs proposées. Bref la famille de Amalia Rodrigues vous propose un excelle produit et il ne faut surtout pas hésiter de s'y rendre. Attention toutefois aux péages des taxes de pollution en vigueur sur les grands itinéraires. Aussi, dès votre entrée au Portugal, en provenance de l'autoroute, à Vila Formoso prendre la direction N16.

Tolles Haus!
Wir (2Pers.) hatten zwar nur einen 4tägigen Aufenthalt, aber es war so zauberhaft. Die Begrüßung war warm und herzlich. Die mega leckeren Trink-und Essensgeschenke waren so liebevoll hergerichtet. Vielen Dank dafür nochmal! Die Ausstattung des Haus ist echt gut. Man hat alles, was man braucht (Jegliche Küchenutensilien; es gibt sogar einen Fön im Bad). Uns hat es an nichts gefehlt. Die Betten waren super bequem! Das Grundstück ist riesig, man ist quasi allein dort. Die Terrasse lädt zum Sonnenbaden ein. Vielen lieben Dank nochmal für die 4 wundervollen, aber viel zu kurzen Tage, in der Casa de Malhões :)
