Stayed at this property one night en-route to northern Portugal. When booking did not realize it was a private-family home. We arrived earlier than anticipated and found no one there. We came back closer to our stated arrival time and again found no one there. A call to Fatima got her and her mother right over to let us in and show us around. The family obviously lives elsewhere and rent out rooms in this home. We were the only guests that night, so we had our choice of rooms and the run of the house. The heaters in the main living areas did not turn on, but those in the bedrooms did. Even though we were not expecting any breakfast, they had bread, jam, coffee and tea. In addition, there was a lemon tree in the yard, so we had free lemon in our tea. There are no restaurants or grocery stores in the local area. However, a five-minute drive put us in areas with plenty of services available. This was a funky but fun stay, and the price of 45 Euros was certainly a bargain. In warmer weather they have nice grounds and lounge chairs, so it could make for a very nice place to stay ‘away from it all’ while seeing the sites of the local area.
