The house is spacious and well organized with two bathrooms, a large kitchen, a living space, and two comfy beds. There is also a wonderful, Escherian outdoor space with steps, patios and enclosed courtyards. When combined with the wide opening windows (perfect for a hot day) they make it a lovely indoor/outdoor experience.

Tudo o que é necessário para uns dias tranquilos!

A casa está localizada numa aldeia muito bonita junto à Mata da Albergaria e à Barragem de Vilarinho das Furnas dos sítios mais bonitos que já vi. Foi re-construída recentemente e tem todo o conforto. Para as noites mais frias tem lareira e aquecimento central! A casa está localizada num sitio tão silencioso que os meus filhos dormiram todos os dias até as 10:00 da manhã (algo inédito) :DD
