"A lovely, cosy Alentejo style cottage situated in a rural area surrounded by vineyards, cork and olive trees. Everything was as described in the listing and the local property manager was lovely and made the check-in and check-out process seamless.

The lemon tree was full of fruit and we were encouraged to pick them to make...

"We stayed with 2 adults and 3 kids. Absolutely loved, loved, loved the village. There's not much to do, but feels therefore like a real immersive experience in a small village. The local library has a play area for kids with lots of toys and games, free to use. The accommodation is comfortable, clean, has everything we needed. Very much appreciated the washing machine to catch up on laundry."

Olga was always available for any questions I had and responded right away. One item to note, there are village cats that sat outside on the porch waiting for us to open the door. Since...

"Jeder, der dem hektischen Alltag entfliehen und entschleunigen möchte ist hier absolut richtig. Eine überaus herzliche und zuvorkommende Gastgeberin, die das liebevoll eingerichtete und authentisch ausgestattete Alentejo-Haus ihrer Großeltern zur Verfügung stellt, damit wohlfühlen garantiert ist. Der Alqueva-Stausee, welcher u.a. auch zum Baden einlädt, ist nur wenige Minuten entfernt und befindet sich in einem wunderbaren naturbelassenen Umfeld."
