Absolument parfait!

En pleine campagne portugaise, dans le paysage unique de la Serra de Sao Mamede et entourée d'oliviers, nous y avons passé un des plus beaux moments de notre voyage au Portugal. D'une grande quiétude, sécuritaire et très propre, c'est l'endroit idéal pour s'y reposer entre les visites des nombreux attraits et villages pittoresques aux alentours. Notre fille de 5 ans a profité grandement de la piscine et courir à sa guise sur l'immense terrain à notre disposition. Mention spéciale à Maria et Paula pour leur chaleureux accueil!

We had the pleasure of staying at Casinha da Póvoa for five nights in September 2017. The recently renovated shed looks brand new and offers everything you need for a stay in Alentejo. Special credits to mrs Graca, the housekeeper and the gentleman (Mr Graca?) the ground keeper who came in every day to make sure everything is in order. Spacious, quiet and loads of privacy, it's all included.

Estupendo!

Nuestra estancia en la casa ha sido maravillosa; está en perfectas condiciones (aire acondicionado, cuarto de baño nuevo...), y no entran ni ruidos de fuera ni el frio por la noche. El jardin es enorme y esta muy cuidado, y hemos estado atendidos por la señora Doña Graça y Paula, quienes han hecho que no nos falte de nada y recomendado muy buenos lugares para visitar... volveremos seguro. Muito obrigadinho!

Em Póvoa e Meadas, curtindo o belo Alentejo

Chegamos ao local sem dificuldades e reconhecemos o espaço pelas fotografias divulgadas (bem enquadradas e deram um retrato fiel). Bem orientadas pela proprietária que demonstrou interesse e preocupação pelo nosso bem estar e pelas condições. A estadia pautou-se pela serenidade acompanhadas pelo doce som das ovelhas que pastavam ao longe. O espaço correspondeu ao esperado precisando de um ponto de leitura para os amantes de leitura à noite... A relva bem cortada (talvez noutro horário) e diariamente regada incutia frescura ao entardecer. Alguns pontos de que gostamos: Passeio de barco no rio Tejo, em Cedillo. Já em Espanha. Perto da barragem de Montalvão/Cedillo. Só possível atravessar ao fim de Semana. Barco del tajo. Visitar a cidade romana de Ammaia em São Salvador da Aramenha, concelho de Marvão. Visitar os fornos da cal, perto de Castelo de Vide. Dar um salto a Malpartida de Cáceres e visitar Los Barruecos, um monumento natural e o Museo Vostell-Malpartida. Obrigada Paula!

We really enjoyed in the property, it's well looked after and would not fault that.

Well looked after, clean, secure and very private. AC installed now and the owners do look after you.

Adorei!!!

Quando cheguei foi uma agradável surpresa. Adorei o espaço! Quem nos recebeu foi muito simpático e estava tudo impecavelmente limpo. O espaço exterior é amplo e muito bem cuidado (a piscina faz diferença), dando a oportunidade de estar-mos sempre em contacto com a natureza. A localização permitiu-nos conhecer uma zona muito bonita do Alto Alentejo. O sitio ideal para descansar!

Dias Fantásticos!

Casa decorada com muito bom gosto e a propriedade é muito agradável. Nestes dias de calor o ar condicionado e a piscina deram muito jeito. Uma experiência a repetir!

Uma experiência quase agradável

A propriedade é agradável e sossegada, pois estávamos sozinhos. O factor mais negativo é o facto de não ter ar condicionado e como é ao lado da estrada é complicado dormir à noite com janelas abertas. Foram duas noites muito difíceis. O valor pedido é muito caro tendo em conta que o espaço é pequeno e, por isso não permite muita privacidade para quem está na casa de banho , visto que a porta/ parede é apenas de vidro e, novamente, tenho que reforçar a ausência do ar condicionado.
