Great little place :)

special place hidden in the winding roads near Geres national park, great place to stay the night in a rural environment. Marta was lovely and so accomodating, and the cute little goat on site made our day ;)

Perfect retreat in Gerês. ( ) Very friendly welcome, a family with dogs and goat. Comfortable bed, convenient location, well designed houses, cozy room and pool. (-) Water with low temperature. Shortage of power sockets.

Amazing place in the hills. Small villages closeby. The accomodation has a pool and good wifi. It has place for just a few people so no concern about overcrowded places. The owner is really nice and helpful. She has sweet dogs and a goat who thinks she is a dog. Very sweet.
