About this property
'Casa da Fonte | Nature | Trails | Branda da Aveleira
Description:
Casa da Fonte retains the essence of a true mountain home!
Restored, but still displaying the simplicity of the people and customs of Branda, where it was built and where many stories have been woven over the years!
It has a kitchen with access to an outdoor porch. The kitchen is fully equipped and can warm up cooler days with its imposing fireplace. With a living room, bathroom with shower and a bedroom with a double bed, it is ideally suited for 2 people who want to experience a true mountain retreat.
Relax in this unique and peaceful getaway in picturesque Branda da Aveleira! In the pastures surrounding Branda, fields and mountains, you can easily spot sheep, cattle, horses and even goats. This is the perfect place to leave the frenetic pace of city life behind and experience, up close, the cultural richness of the mountain landscape and daily life linked to agriculture, sheep farming and beekeeping.
A truly idyllic place that you will certainly never forget!
