The property is basically good and spacious. The pool is good for all the family although the water is a little acid so your eyes sting a bit. To improve this property it needs airconditioning in the upstairs rooms. The kitchen for so many people is inadequate - OK many people will not do much cooking but the house provides for a lot of people and even breakfasts are difficult to prepare in the small space. There is scope to improve it a lot and create some more workspace. The house is furnished with ageing Ikea style furniture but it was adequate. We liked the location, in the country but nice places to visit nearby. Like many rural properties the electricity supply is a little temperamental but was easy to reset. We found you need the power to supply the water as well. We had an unfortunate failure of both the dishwasher and fridge freezer during our stay. The owner was quick to act and find solutions for us which we appreciated. He was always helpful. In summary, a good place, a nice property but not top notch. It needs some work to upgrade as many of the fitments eg shower fitments are showing signs of age.

Our family went for 2 weeks to this farmhouse villa and had a lovely time. The swimming pool is excellent and the "games room" with table football and table tennis is a wonderful way to keep teenagers diverted. Although the house is in the country, it is also perfectly possible to go to Porto on the train (from the station at Caíde) which we did a few times. It's cheap and takes 45 mins. Recommended.

The photos do not do justice to the location & grounds of the villa. There are wonderful mountain views & with the remote location comes lot's of greenery, wildlife, birds, butterflies. The villa was clean & is well set out. Extremely spacious with plenty of bathrooms, toilets etc. The pool is fed by fresh water which is great for your hair, eyes & swimwear. It isn't too deep (probably maximum of 1.5m) There are plenty or loungers & parasols around the pool. We had 4 children in the party (ages 4-12) & despite there being no English TV they were well entertained with the pool, vineyard, table tennis, woods, picking fruit, playing hide & seek & looking for lizards. As recommended by Antonio, the owner, We had a meal at Pensao de Magalhaes in Marco de Canavezes which was good for the English & Portuguese palates amongst us. The villa is remote so get good direction or use a Satnav. Pool & bedroom towels are provided. We would recommend this place if you want to get away from everything
