Ótimo para quem quer descansar e estar na tranquilidade da natureza
Pros:

O atendimento e o staff - a D. Madalena é um amor de pessoa, muito muito atenciosa e querida, fez nos logo sentir como se tivéssemos em casa! Bom pequeno almoço com alguma variedade (cereais, bolos caseiros, várias bebidas, aveia, fruta, ótimos croissants, ovo mexido e mais). A paisagem é linda, mesmo junto à barragem, é um céu estrelado incrível de noite. É uma zona calma, afastada da civilação, ótima para descansar

Cons:

Não tínhamos mini bar no quarto e levámos comida a contar com isso - mas a D. Madalena ajudou-nos imenso e deixou-nos usar o bar do restaurante.
Não têm restaurante próprio - contudo há várias opções boas e baratas a cerca de 20min;

Spokojna i cicha okolica. Personel bardzo miły. Pani na recepcji wszystko dokładnie wyjaśniła. Widok z każdej strony był niesamowity. Śniadanie bardzo smaczne. Polecam serdecznie dla relaksu i odprężenia. Pokój bardzo duży i wygodne krzesła na tarasie.
