Delightful rural cabin/home
This cabin is a beautiful 2 floor home with three bedrooms, 2 baths and comfortable living and dining areas. It is clearly a beloved retreat for the owner as there are many antiques and curiosities to be seen and enjoyed. There was a fireplace to use in the evenings, a very well equipped kitchen with full size fridge and gas stove. The location is out of town with easy access to hiking, and a nice outside balcony to enjoy the views. The owner provides a very helpful book of local activities to consider and restaurants to be tried. With Google Maps we were able to navigate the narrow and winding roads and find our way to the local spots of interest. There is plenty of room for a family and it also felt just right for us as a couple.

Peaceful Countryside retreat
This authentic country side property is nestled in a small farming village. Paulo was easy to communicate with and the property manager Lucinda was there waiting for us upon our arrival. The house is well furnished and has everything you need. The magnificent sunsets are a bonus!! The village is small, and things seemed to close up early if you are looking to go out for dinner. T We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this property and disappointed we did not plan to stay an extra day or two.

Home from home
We have been renting holiday homes in France, Spain and Portugal for about 25 years. These days 3 generations holiday together (with kids and grand kids). We can honestly say that this holiday house is in the top 3. It is so well equipped it really is like being at home. It is also very clean. We all slept so well, the beds and sheets are very comfortable and the rooms are dark and quiet. It is situated about 15 mins drive from the Douro and we spend most of our days on one of the many picturesque beaches. The supermarket is only 5 minutes drive which is very convenient. Paulo is a lovely host, very efficient, accommodating and flexible with check in and check out times. We have never returned to a holiday house as we like to discover new regions but this house might make us change this rule 😊 Thanks Paulo.

Nous avons beaucoup aimé la maison et son environnement. Merci à Theresa pour l'accueil. Nous conseillons le restaurant de Gralheira , proposé par Paulo, où nous avons dégusté entre autres du cabri. La N222 vaut aussi le coup d'être empruntée pour ses vues sur le Douro. Attention ça tourne tout le temps.

A very nice chalet over the Douro valley
The chalet is located in a smalll hamlet, at the end of a stony road. It is well equipped and had all we needed for our short stay. It is full of 'souvenirs', objects, books, pictures, which gives it a very homelike feeling. We enjoyed the outside terrace with its table and bbq, as well as the outside sofa. The view from the balcony is beautiful. Note that the seventh bed is in the corridor. The rooms are small but fine with good bedding. We had a nice time hiking around the area, enjoying the cascades in the streams down Cinfaes. The roadbook provided by the owner is very useful. We enjoyed our stay a lot!

Nous nous sommes reposés et avons profité de la région : Porto, Braga, Aveiro, le pont suspendu à Arouca, .... Quelques randonnées et baignades. Le logement est conforme à sa description avec un coucher de soleil depuis l'arrière de la maison. Celui-ci est équipé pour passer un bon séjour.

Fijn huisje in een mooie omgeving
Huisje lag in een mooie, groene omgeving. Alles was aanwezig. Tevens meer dan voldoende handdoeken. Mooi uitzicht, rust! De eigenaar is erg attent en vriendelijk. Reageert snel als je hem nodig hebt. Biedt alle hulp. De bakker komt iedere morgen met verse broodjes, genieten!

Wunderschönes Haus - tolle Lage
Wir waren mit 4 Erwachsenen im Haus und haben die Zeit sehr genossen. Das Haus ist sehr liebevoll eingerichtet, sehr familiär. September ist die perfekte Zeit. Die Abende auf dem Balkon mit gutem Portwein werden wir nicht vergessen. Wenn ich etwas bemängeln würde, dann lediglich, dass die Geschirrspülmaschine etwas schwierig zu öffnen ist, weil die Front nicht mehr ganz fest ist. Ansonsten war es perfekt, inklusive der Besuche der Nachbarshunde. Vorsicht - die nehmen gerne mal einen Schuh mit als Souvenier ;-). Und der morgendliche Bäckerbesuch ist immer wieder unterhaltsam. Vielen Dank Paulo für eine schöne Zeit.

Super séjour
Une semaine innoubliable dans cette maison "du bout du monde". Maison a la campagne dans un havre de verdure sous les arbres. Une vue incroyable avec de magnifiques couchés de soleil. Eau de source proche et consommable appréciable.Depaysement assuré je recommande pour les amoureux de la nature. Malgré tout les commodités sont a proximité en voiture et nous avons pu assisté à la foire agricole de Cinfaes très animée. Rivières et baignades assurées dans des cadres splendides. Nous reviendrons...

Uriges Ferienhaus in nahezu Alleinlage
Das Ferienhaus ist komplett ausgestattet und man 100% seine Ruhe😎. Der Anfahrtsweg zum Haus ist ein wenig abenteuerlich .Man hat einen schönen Blick auf die Berge 🏔 .Es ist genug Platz für 6-7 Personen. In 10-20 min Fahrtzeit findet man Supermarkt, Bahnhof z.B. um nach Porto zu kommen und natürlich viel Natur zum wandern und Baden.

Magnifique maison rustique dans un cadre enchanteur
En se fiant aux applications GPS, il n'est pas facile de s'y rendre. C'est dire à quel point cette maison se trouve hors des sentiers battus. Heureusement qu'il y avait Paulo qui s'est assuré, par téléphone et textos, qu'on arrive à bon port. L'accueil fut donc impeccable avec, en prime, la présence des cousins de Paulo dans une des maisons voisines, qui se sont montrés d'une grande gentillesse. Le site est tout à fait charmant et paisible avec une vue magnifique sur les montagnes et de magnifiques couchers de soleil. Bien que la maison soit hors des sentiers battus, la belle ville de montagne de Cinfaes se trouve à tout au plus 5 minutes en voiture. Il est donc facile de se ravitailler ou de se trouver un bon restaurant. De plus, la maison est avantageusement située pour visiter plusieurs endroits d'intérêt dans les environs et elle se trouve près d'une station de train pour se rendre en 1h15 à Porto. En ce qui concerne la maison, elle a vraiment beaucoup de cachet avec un magnifique balcon pour se détendre et tout simplement admirer la beauté du paysage. Le seul petit bémol est le taux assez élevé d'humidité en bas et l'odeur de vieille maison. Mais justement ça vient avec le fait que la maison est rustique et en pierres. On finit donc par s'y habituer. Pour l'humidité, un déshumidificateur serait peut-être une bonne idée. Somme toute, je recommande grandement cet hébergement. Merci Paulo

Sehr schönes ursprüngliches Haus
Es ist ein sehr schönes ursprüngliches Haus. Mit dem Komfort der möglich ist. Die Küche ist vollausgestattet. Es hat seinen eigenen Charme. Abgelegen bietet es Ruhe und Gemütlichkeit durch 2 Kachelöfen. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Sehr guter Kontakt mit dem Vermieter. Ein Bäckerfahrzeug kommt direkt vors Haus.
