I'm Fred. In 2013, my wife and I took over "Boa Terra" from family who owned it for 17 years and converted the old, neglected farmhouse into the attractive, comfortable house it is today. After the death of my wife in 2021, I am still very happy with the house, the place and the quiet environment.

Thanks for the review and the nice words.
Well, how remote. Santa Margarida is 1 km away, Alte is 3 km away and Messines is 8 km away.
It is therefore a cottage to enjoy the tranquility.

We had a very nice holiday in Boa Terra. Nice location, sometimes a bit of noise from construction work in the area, but that can happen. Weather was still fine, so we could also enjoy the pool. Very nice house, which felt mor...

Cozy house with lovely veranda and pool in a beautiful, quiet place. Many opportunities for trips in the area and hikes directly from the house.
A little paradise!!

Dear Mr. Sloot,
I suddenly see that I have not yet responded to your good review. Thank you for that.
Yes, if it is very hot, the walking should be done in the early morning or in the afternoon.
Regards
Fred...

Great location and very friendly house with very serviced owners.

Thank you for your review. With a 7, you rate the child-friendliness the lowest. Any suggestions where it could be improved?
