The pool was mainly shaded so cold and unusable. Also cluttered and old fashioned.
The pool was never more tha a third in the sun and only that for a couple of hours. We asked the owner before booking about sun on the pool to which his reply was almost all day day shadow 18.30. The seating area around the pool needed a good clean. The details let us believe that there were bicycles and canoe for use of visitors this was not the case. The casa needs a lot of maintenance the fridge shelves broken and missing, the shower leaks, generally in a sad state. The house is very cluttered with many ornaments, and vases of dusty silk flowers, and dirty plastic fruit and vegetables in the kitchen. I have contacted the owner on return but had a very uncaring reply. So in conclusion although the casa is in a picturesque area it is very shady and dark, there are a lot of barking dogs and noisy pleasure boats on the lake. I hope this is a helpful feedback.
The guests spent 15 days in the house never report any complainants when they where on holidays, that could give us a change of attend some of the compliments.
The pool has sun light.
There are no details that we provide bicycles and canoe, we let the guest know were they can rent them.
The house being clutter and old fashion, is a personal opinion that can be verified by the pictures we provide on the site.
The problem of the fridge having broken shelf's, was already rectify.
The house not be clean was never report, not even the housekeeper went to change the linen.
Unfortunately the guest contact me after more then 20 days, complaining about everything and asking for a refund.
I was anything but polite with the guest, but he just try to get a refund or else post a bad review, what he just did more then a month after the holidays are over.
Even so we take all opinions serious and will do the best efforts to attend all the complaint.
Joyaux en perdition
Une maison et un cadre exceptionnels, qui font rêver. Il est dommage que ce diamand brute soit délaissé: manque cruel d'entretien, vétusté et ménage à revoir.
Hormis ces remarques négatives, la maison est très bien située, cachée dans la forêt avec une vue exceptionnelle sur le fleuve
El sitio muy bonito
Nos ha parecido que la casa esta en un entorno precioso aunque le haria falta recrotar algun arbol para poder disfrutar mas de las vistas.
La casa tenia de todo aunque habia algunas cosas que fallaban
Nevera muy pequeña y le faltaba el estante lateral lo que te inpedia poder dejar botellas porque se caian. y la
television como la antena estaba tapada con los arboles a veces no se veia y en cuanto a la limpieza de la casa regular .
Séjour de rêve dans un petit paradis
Maison magique dans une région magnifique. La maison de Fernando est un petit chalet aux dimensions parfaites et très confortable avec le charme d'une vieille maison familiale pleine de souvenirs. Elle est cachée dans les arbres. Le jardin en escaliers est plein de petits recoins avec de vieilles pierres moussues et à l'ombre d'arbres superbes. La petite piscine au soleil est un bonheur. Merci aussi pour l'attention apportée à nos petits soucis de WiFi. Merci pour tout. Séjour enchanteur.
Sehr Ruhiges und Uhriges Cottage mitten im einzigen National Park Portugals .
Ein gemütliches und mit viel Charme eingerichtetes Landhaus mitten in der Natur eines der schönsten Regionen Nord Portugals,nah am Rio Cavado Stausee und Serra do Geres,von hier aus kann mann Auto-Touren und oder Wanderungen ansteuern oder einfach den Tag am Pool geniessen und abschalten....(kein verkehr,flugzeuge oder sonstiges lärm).
Wir haben es GENOSSEN.
Man muss leider dazu sagen das seit der alte Herr des Hauses verstorben ist, dass es dem Grundstück und Garten-Anlage drumm herum an Pflege und kleiner Reparaturen fehlt zum.bsp. der weg von wo man das Auto parkt bis zum Eingang braucht licht oder draußen im Garten da könnte man viele der vorhandene Lampen und
Lichtschalter reparieren,auch ein Wasseranschluß draußen wäre gut....
Ich hoffe es werde sich jemanden drumm kümmern.! Es wäre schade dieser kleiner Ruheparadies zerfallen zu lassen.
Aber sonst fehlt es an nichts was man braucht einige Tage um hier in Ruhe zu verweilen, bevorzugt im Sommer aber im Winter mit Kaminfeuer auch.
