Lovely!!!
Even though it poured rain for our 3 days stay, we still had an amazing time. A little chilly but plenty of wood available for the wood fire. Comfortable bed, well stocked kitchen, fast internet. No oven but hot plate works well. Parking right beside the house. Communication with the host was 5 star. Speaks absolutely fluent English. WhatsApp messaged back and forth with response times of just minutes. Best part of the stay were the 2 most friendliest dogs you’ll ever meet - they’ll even go hiking with you. Great trails and hiking roads right out the door. Would love to come back. Thank you for having us!

A visit with the cows
We had a lovely and relaxing stay in this very unique cottage in the country. We had some nice hikes in the area as well as several day trips, all within an hour of the cottage. Sandra was right next door and absolutely lovely. We tended to have a large lunch while out on our day trips and lighter picnics when retreating back in the evening. The photos show cows and there are plenty of them as well as wild horses. It was a unique experience and a nice break after visiting the city.

Truly a great introduction to life in norther mountains of Portugal.
We enjoyed every minute of our stay at this beautiful home. What a location! Was like living on a farm. It was a great base to explore the surrounding area and there is a lot to explore! There is a lot of things to do even if you don’t want to drive, and as a bonus when going for a walk you might be accompanied by the hosts two dogs. The hosts were very accommodating and friendly.

Beautiful rural area
You will truly get a taste of rural Portugal here! The old cottage was charming and clean. We enjoyed sitting on the outdoor chairs overlooking the valley and watching the cows and sheep being escorted home at the end of the day. We were able to cook a full meal in the kitchen and enjoy it at the outdoor table. I would note that, if you are hoping for a private experience, as the listing’s photos seem to suggest, you might be disappointed, as the hosts live 20-30 feet away in an adjacent house. And if you are seeking peace and quiet, I will note that the countryside at night was alive with the sound of barking dogs! Sandra was lovely and shared lots of information with us about where to eat and walk.

Away from it all, a little bit if heaven if the weather isn't perfect!
Excellent correspondence with the owner, clean and perfectly located cottage for the away from it all break. Endless walks and off road bike rides from the cottage. Lots of animals, cows, goats, sheep, dogs and horses wandering past, traditional farming all around. Easy car drive to Ponte d lima and other great places. Great place thank you

A cottage in the clouds.
This little cottage is exquisitely furnished and comfortable. A recent remodel has resulted in a modern and updated feel in a little rock cottage. Both interior and exterior walls are rock, while the kitchen includes upgrades like an induction cooktop. The bathroom shower is very well done with a clear glass enclosure, good water pressure and water runs as hot as you like. The wooden shutters on all the windows and on the door allow for complete darkness in the rooms (easy to catch up on sleep when you are still getting over the time change). The area is very rural, with cows, sheep and pigs in the area, and farmers moving them from fields to the barns in the morning and evening. Listening to the cows' bells and the gentle "baas" from the sheep are a small part of the bucolic atmosphere surrounding this wonderful little place. Felipe and Sandy are welcoming hosts and very attentive to any needs. We will recall our stay here with fondness, and will to return to this little Cottage in the Clouds.

Gorgeous rural setting
A very lovely, authentic rural Portugal experience. Hosts were great, scenery and hiking nearby was excellent.Peaceful surroundings, with daily delivery of bread and fish, stone granaries, farm animals and far off church bells. Cottage was cozy and sufficiently equipped for comfort and self catering. Unfortunately rural Portugal sometimes means barking dogs and we did experience this during our eight nights. Thanks to our hosts, Felipe and Sandra for this great experience.
