A very special house
The house is beautiful the first floor is an old olive press. Amazing. And the scond floor are tge rooms.
We loved our stay here during the boom festival. A lot of space. We were 5 but there were room for more. The kitchen has every thing you need, and the balcony behind is the best spot for sunset. It's 15 min drive from the boom festival.. a bit warm in summer with air fan in the rooms ,but when you travel or at the lake at the festival during noon, it doesn't bother. We highly recomned it

Férias em Medelim
A estadia no geral foi bastante agradável. A casa é fantástica tirando algumas das camas que são antigas e não são confortáveis.
Tivemos um problema com um ninho de vespas numa das janelas que nos impossibilitava a abertura da mesma.
Outra questão menos agradável foi descobrir que a internet na casa teria de ser paga a parte quando no anuncio não fazem referencia.
