Traditional stone cottage in farming village
The two storey cottage was lovely, completely renovated whilst still retaining its traditional character. Metal spiral staircase quite thin, so we left our heavy bags downstairs. Lovely simple original back yard with orange tree and flowers, plus garden setting. Downstairs a little dark, but this is the nature of a traditional stone cottage. Village very quiet, no restaurants or shops, however nearest are about 10mins away by car,so not a problem. We had a lovely relaxing stay.

Unique and fascinating house, Extremely hospitable host family, Gorgeous area
This stone house, rehabilitated from a century-old barn and home, is incredible. The host family kept the traditional look and maintained the original artistry of the building style, while adding modern conveniences. The surrounding village is quiet and picturesque, a serene escape from a noisy urban environment. We followed the directions, using GPS coordinates for the first time, and found the meeting spot with no problems. The host family was extremely kind and welcoming. Interesting historic and natural sites and excellent restaurants are within a short driving distance. We will never forget our two nights in this beautiful place.

A lovely house in a tranquil place.
This was a lovely house, just right for some time away and peace and quiet. It was very clean and tidy, with all the things we needed for our stay. The welcome we had was really nice, including the basket of local items - a thoughtful touch and much appreciated. We'd come back! Muita obrigada.

Wonderful place to stay!
Grandmother's house is a great place to stay. If you like calm place, close to the nature it's perfect for you. Stonehouse where it's cool even if it's 40 degrees outside and a nice garden with orange tree for your own. The house is located in a small village and there are a few river beaches close to. Fatima and Virgilio Moreira are extremely nice and helpfull. We are gratefully for their hospitality. We strongly recommend the house and we hope we will come back there next time. Marta and Mikael

Superb hospitality in a quiet mountain village.
We cannot thank Virgilio and Fatima enough for their welcome and the continued hospitality shown throughout our stay. Grandma's House has everything you need for a peaceful holiday. There are three spacious bedrooms , a comfortable living area and kitchen, whilst outside there is an enclosed garden , complete with barbeque area , where you can pick your own oranges from the tree . There are numerous walks in the area and the local town of Proenca A Nova is only five minutes drive away. It was our first visit to the area and it will not be the last.

Para los que buscan rutas, ríos y vacaciones en familia
La casa es acogedora y preciosa, decorada con mucho gusto, en una pequeña aldea apartada de todo pero con todo lo necesario para pasar unos días tranquilos con la familia. Está ubicada estratégicamente ( a 15 o 20 min) cerca de todas las playas fluviales de la zona, las cuales a cual más bonita y con todos los servicios: chiringuitos, aseos, juegos para los niños. Mis chicos disfrutaron muchísimo de cada entorno. Sólo tuvimos problemas con los colchones de las camas que eran de muelles y muy duros. También, el escuchar cada hora las campanas de la ermita del pueblo, sonaban de noche también, pero acabamos acostumbrándonos. Virgilio un encanto de hombre, nos obsequiaron con una cesta de varios productos de ellos y de la zona, así como un vino tinto riquísimo que elabora él mismo.

Tranquillité
Le lieu et la maison étaient on ne peut plus calmes . Le manque de luminosité est dû au fait qu'il s'agit d'une maison ancienne avec des petites fenêtres et des murs épais . Nos hôtes nous ont fait passer une excellente dernière soirée. Je souhaite à tous les locataires de vivre une expérience aussi agréable .

Destaco a simpatia e simplicidade dos proprietários, que valorizam e admiram o interior de Portugal. O bom gosto, higiene e excelente localização da casa da avó, que mantém as origens e oferece o conforto de uma casa moderna. Obrigada pelo bolo e as courgetes. Fantásticos anfitriões.

Zona muito sossegada mas lindíssima. O silêncio e o céu à noite são inexplicáveis. Não tivemos sorte com o tempo e não pudemos experimentar as praias fluviais. Ainda visitamos duas mas apenas vimos que têm boas condições. O Sr. Virgílio e a D. Fátima são uma simpatia e receberam-nos muito bem. Fizeram-nos sentir em casa. 5 estrelas!

La maison est très belle, spacieuse, fort bien décorée, équipée, et très bien entretenue. Au calme, idéale pour passer des vacances reposantes et centrale pour rayonner lors de visites du Portugal. L'accueil de Mme et M. Moreira, ainsi que les relations avec eux sont adorables. Ce sont des personnes très gentilles et très accueillantes (Merci pour le panier, les citrons et le gâteau !). Location très très recommandable et recommandée.

Geweldige tijd in Casa da Avó
Een heel leuk stone huis. Prachtig gerenoveerd. Alles wat je er nodig hebt was er. Wat een prachtige mensen wonen daar in het dorpje. Het kon niet op, bij aankomst een schitterende welkomst mand met streekproducten, tijdens het weekend kwam de verhuurder Virgilio een overheerlijke cake, gebakken door Fátima, brengen. Virgilio heeft ons ook nog een excursie gegeven door het dorpje en ons de geschiedenis van het dorpje uitgelegd. Niets was Fátima en Virgilio te veel om het ons naar de zin te maken. Daar onze dochter met haar gezinnetje op een half uurtje rijden van Casa da Avó woont, gaan wij zeker nog een keer naar deze lokatie terug. Het is een echte aanrader.
