Casa grande e espaçosa, ideal para grupos. A hospitalidade é 5*... recebidos com bolo de boas vindas! A vista é magnífica.
Os donos são excecionalmente profissionais, amigáveis, prestáveis e proporcionaram-nos um perfeito nível de privacidade. A casa é absolutamente fantástica para umas férias de inverno: é grande, espaçosa, aquecida, limpa, isolada (termicamente e geograficamente), com vastas áreas de convívio. A vista é fenomenal e a localização ótima para visitar vários pontos da Serra da Estrela. Tem internet por fibra e com boa rede nas várias divisões. A cozinha é bem equipada. Espero voltar de certeza.
