Casa espetacular num sitio lindissimo!

Excelente casa, melhor do que aparenta nas fotografias! Lugar muito sossegado e excelente para quem procura paz e natureza. O Proprietário da casa é muito acessível e amigável! Por fim, os seus cãopanheiros são umas doçuras e para quem gosta de animais como nós deterrem-se com eles! Gostamos muito e aconselhamos.

O lugar parece distante de tudo. Mas está perto de muitos lugares. A casa é confortável, bem equipada, com bom gosto. Os jardins são bonitos e bem tratados. O acolhimento é muito eficaz, pela disponibilidade e pela simpatia no trato. Recomendo.

Superbe propriété au calme , détente assurée , rien ne manque : vaisselle , électroménager tout est là et en super état , comme neuf ! La literie est parfaite ( ce n'est pas toujours le cas dans les locations ) Propreté irréprochable partout dans la propriété. Le propriétaire est super sympathique aux petits soins pour ses locataires .Vraiment à recommander . Pas loin de la ville de Braga qu'il faut absolument visiter .
