refúgio

Um antigo lagar transformado em casa rural, com muito encanto. Muito espaço interior e bom espaço exterior para desfrutar as vistas. Casa bem equipada. Fomos num fim de semana depois de bastante chuva, e a casa notava-se húmida e algo fria, que poderia ser facilmente resolvido com adição de equipamento de aquecimento e desumidificador.

Maravilhoso!

Estadia curta de fim de semana, para conhecer um pouco a região. A casa é extamente como o anúncio, muito rústica com peças muito antigas. Todos os detalhes da casa são fantásticos e apetece ficar a viver eternamente ali. Obrigada por dar a conhecer locais como este.

Amazing house, amazing view over Douro valley

We were very well welcomed, the house is beautiful and has all you need to spend a nice relaxing time if you chose to stay around. Not to mention there is a little surprise in every corner with a very personal touch. The view is breathtaking and the locals make you feel at home. Deffenitely recommended

2/10 Terrible

Für die Zeit zwischen Oktober bis April ungeeignet.

Zum Zeitpunkt des Aufenthalts (April '18) herrschten im Douro-Tal Temperaturen zwischen 7 und 11 Grad Celsius. Da die Wohnung keine Heizung besitzt, die Vermieterin zu keinem Zeitpunkt vor Ort war, mußten wir Vorzeitig abreisen. Ob die 'Mit-Vertrauen-Buchen-Garantie von HomeAway' helfen wird, den uns entstandenen Schaden zu regulieren (Erstattung der Kosten für die Mietwohnung) bleibt abzuwarten. Die Wohnung hätte zum Zeitpunkt unseres gewünschten Aufenthalts überhaupt nicht vermietet werden dürfen.
