Beautiful family house with pool in the center of a typical village of Portugal
Stay in this house is a unique family experience. It is located in a valley that has been crossed by the oldest Roman road in the country and has absorbed the influences of several generations of travelers who passed through here. Near the house, you can visit a dolmen pre-Roman visitors. The name of the village itself is evidence of commercial activity: Venda Nova, sales, local sales of local products. When other communication networks have been developed, the village became increasingly quiet and is now at the end of a broad valley surrounded by forests where abounds quiet but close to places of great cultural and artistic interest as Conimbriga and Buçaco.

Our group of 8 thoroughly enjoyed our one-night stay. Silvia was very accommodating with our schedule and making certain amenities available, such as the sauna, upon request. It was a pleasure to experience her hospitality and zest for life!
Deuxième séjour dans cette villa et toujours aussi parfait. Ajour d'un hammam, et sauna ainsi que la possibilité de massage on complété nos vacances . Et que dire que la propriétaire et de Miguel , fantastique , de bon conseils , serviable et tellement gentils .
On reviendra :)
´propriedade de traça antiga, muito ao meu gosto, amplo espaço para refeições á exepçao do único local com televisao só ter dois sofás e não haver televisão nos quartos.
Muito simpática a D. Silvia e sua filha.
Casa com muita história de várias gerações que ao ouvir faz nos lembrar nas casas abandonadas dos nossos antepassados mas que ninguém deu continuidade. Sitio ideal para quem quer passar umas férias descansadas sem confusão gozar da piscina conviver com a família
Um sítio muito lindo com muitas coisas para ver à volta. Tudo perfeito para uma saída em família com crianças. Um acolhimento perfeito e familiar. Esperamos voltar.
El alojamiento es perfecto para un grupo amplio de personas, tanto si buscan disfrutar exclusivamente de los servicios de la casa - la piscina es espectacular - como si se toma vomo base para rutas por los alrededores. La atención y amabilidad de Silvia son excelentes. Hemos pasado unos días estupendos.

Vacances Parfaites
Tout est facile et convivial dès les premiers échanges via le site internet.
Nous avons été chaleureusement accueilli dès notre arrivée; nous y avons rencontré des personnes agréables, serviables, discrètes toujours de bons services.
La maison est juste super avec beaucoup d'espace où chacun de nous y a trouver sa place (4 adultes 3 ados et 2 enfants)
L'extérieur est top, la piscine, le parc, l'espace barbecue. Tout y est rien ne manque. Nous n'oublierons pas nos merveilleuses vacances dans cet endroit.
Je recommanderais cette location sans problème...

Lovely authentic house
What a lovely house this was in an absolutely stunning area. We were a large group with young children and we all had a wonderful time. Silvia was so welcoming. The restaurant up the hill was very nice. Pool is gorgeous. We will definitely be returning. Penacova was stunning. Thankyou Silvia 😊

Fanastiskt hus, med fantastisk värdinna
Ett enormt stort och härligt hus långt ut på landet. Den stora verandan under tak och det svala inomhusklimatet gav skön omväxling och bra nattsömn. Silvia är en fantastisk värdinna med perfekt fingertoppskänsla. Möjligen ska man veta om att huset ligger så att man måste ha bil för att kunna handla och utföra ärenden.

Accueil généreux et tranquillité
Nous venons de passer une semaine à cinq dans cette grande villa située dans une région montagneuse, tranquille mais non isolée ; le centre ville se trouvant à quelques minutes en voiture. Les propriétaires, Silvia et John, sont des gens extrêmement accueillants, réactifs et généreux qui ont su tout de suite nous mettre à l'aise et metttre à notre disposition un book de sites à visiter dont la région regorge.
Nous recommandons cet endroit à tous ceux qui souhaitent retrouver de l'authenticité et la chaleur humaine.
