Schönes und ruhig gelegenes Anwesen mit großem Garten und tropischen Obstbäumen. Eines der Schlafzimmer ist ein Durchgangszimmer, was wir aber vorher wussten und was uns nicht gestört hat. Grosses Wohnzimmer, viel Freifläche, Waschhaus mit separatem WC. Sehr praktisch.

Beautiful stay at Quinta da Fonte

We had a very good time at Quinta da Fonte. The house is beautifully located and has a nice garden surrounding it. Our absolute favourite spot: the table below a huge old tree that allows you to sit outside even during the warmest hours of the day and have an amazing view over the village and out to the sea. What we would have loved to have: some sunchairs or hammock; a key to lock the bathroom; and to know in advance that the second bedroom is 'open' and you need to walk through it to get to the bathroom from bedroom #1. It worked for us as a family; it would have been really awkward if we had been two couples staying there.

altes Häuschen, einfach gehalten, die Ausstattung ist auch eher einfach, zu wenig zweckmäßige Küchengerätschaften, in den Schränken riecht es sehr stark nach Schimmel, die Lage ist sehr schön und abgelegen, allerdings könnte man den Garten etwas mehr pflegen und es fehlen unbedingt Sonnenliegen, die wir zwar nachgefragt haben aber nicht erhielten, schade...
