Fine, warm welcome. Accommodation was good too. The surroundings are very beautiful, idyllic
Splendid! Everthing allright. The house is large with beautiful rooms and bathrooms. There is no air conditioning. Also no washing machine.
The accommodation was immaculate and the surroundings extraordinary.
Very nice environment, but remote, beautiful house. Easy to find. Hygiene super, nothing to complain about! It is good that there is a swimming pool, the river does not invite you to swim in (green water due to algae formation). It is a pity that the lighting did not work, otherwise we would definitely go swimming in the evening. A small minus we found the pillows of the beds, which are really in need of replacement. But otherwise no comments, the house is fine and very pleasant to stay in! A big recommendation!
Beautiful house on the river Dão. Large living room and bedrooms, spacious kitchen. View over the river and wooded hills is magnificent. Big terrace. The river is actually a reservoir. Beautiful environment, but suffered under the forest fires in 2017. Again a lot of new growth (especially eucalyptus for the paper industry oak forests have suffered less). Now a lot of algae probably because of the extra supply of nutrients through the fire. Many birds of prey (Wouwen), beautiful face. Very friendly reception by the manager (speaks better French than English). She drove us to show location of supermarkets and restaurants. Swimming pool ("infinity pool") on the river was flooded (due to varying level of reservoir) and not yet clean. This has been done 3 days after arrival. Kitchen and sanitary ware were clean. Here and there in the corners, picking dust. There was a dirty smell in the kitchen. After extensive search this turned out to be caused by a condensation tray on the back of the refrigerator. In it dirty rotting sludge. We have cleaned something ourselves. Cost a few hours. Allowance by owner in the form of a fine bottle of wine. We have made many trips. The University Library of Coimbra is very beautiful, large spaces with gilded carvings. Tomar is also worth the trip Convento de Christo is on the Unesco World Heritage List. Buçaco has a beautiful park with thousands of trees of 100 and different species. Built by monks since the 12th century. The Fonte Fria (cold source) with terraces almost 200 steps down. Superb.
We were 4 adults (2 couples) WHAT WE HAVE APPRECIATED The exceptional setting, the welcome of Marlene on site (and the follow-up of the reservation by Belvilla), the interior space and the terrace of the cottage, environment and the site.CE WE LIKE LESS LIKE The absence of washing machine, the low number of cutlery, the obligatory cleaning price, the dirt of the numerous windows, the noisy cross-country motorcycles on the WE
