House as described, very friendly hosts and very close to the Serra da Estrela. Top

We loved our stay at this charming farm! The beauty and tranquility of this place is beyond words. The houses on the farm are beautifully decorated and the host was super welcoming. The highlight of our stay was definitely the chance to disconnect from daily life and simply enjoy nature. We visited the nearby villages and hiked to the top of the Serra da Estrela, which was an unforgettable experience. We spent our days exploring the vast lands and admiring the stunning views of the surrounding countryside. In the evenings, we kicked back in the hammocks, enjoying the mountain breeze and the sound of birds chirping in the distance. The local cheese was a real treat, it was one of the tastiest cheeses I've ever had! All in all, our stay at this farm was an experience we will never forget. We returned home feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. I would highly recommend this farm to anyone looking for a natural getaway. Thank you so much for sharing your little slice of paradise with us!

We had a very relaxing time at João’s place. The surroundings are beautiful and calm, the apartment was very nice and clean. We enjoyed our stay a lot.

Wonderful, peaceful farm. Helpful host, strongly reccomended

Lugar da Pedra Altra is a very special place, the host were very helpful and we had a very memorable holiday. We stayed there as a group of eight, two families and we had enough space, and the breakfast that they supplied was very enjoyable. We would look to visit again in the future

We loved it here! Rosa and Joao made us feel like family. Rosa is incredibly knowledgeable of the Village and the surrounding areas. The animals are friendly, you can walk through the areas without fear. The goats, Lemon (the donkey), Boss the puppy and so much more. Rosa should be the Mayor, she knows everyone and her friendly personality makes the entire Village glow. We were introduced to all the friendly people of the Aldeia Fuinhas. Rosa shared her knowledge of the cheese making process, I have new cheese making skills. The hostess with the mostest provided good wine, tasty orange cake, plenty of good herbal teas, the garden is bright and well maintained. I had a refreshing dip in the super clean pool on a hot day. Casa da Aldeia is a magical place for all ages to enjoy the surroundings and the Animals. You can find Joao or their friendly neighbor Joaquin milking the goats twice daily. You will love to see this fresh milk production; say cheese. We will see you again Rosa & Joao

We loved our stay at Susan’s place! The apartment was exactly what we expected, with beautiful stunning views and surrounded by nature! The common areas were a nice surprise and each space felt carefully designed and taken care of. The pool was definitely a highlight, as we were able to enjoy it on some really hot days. Susan was super easy to communicate with, and made us feel welcomed and taken care of. We would definitely like to stay there again, and we wholeheartedly recommend it!

I spent two nights at Casa Canela with my girlfriend. We made this choice because we wanted to “escape” the chaos of the city and look for a place to rest! You've exceeded our expectations! Super quiet place, with all the amenities! Super well-equipped kitchen, impeccable bathroom and phenomenal bedroom! The cleaning, housekeeping and care was excellent! The pool is super well maintained, as is the entire space around it! Even with Steve living upstairs, the privacy was total! Steve is fantastic and super available! The house has all the conditions and amenities for those who want to spend a week or two! Without a doubt, the best place I've ever stayed! I hope I can come back someday! For those looking for peace and rest, we highly recommend this place!! Thanks for the experience, Steve ☺️ Oswaldo and Maggie
