The houses are situated around a central garden with swimming pool and olive grove. All houses also have their own outdoor space, with dining table and sitting area. In the garden you can see original “espigueiros”, the traditional wooden maize barns.
Casa 'Escola Velha' (The Old School) is over a hundred years old. As the name suggests, it was a small school for the village until 1956. Some of the current villagers even went to primary school there. Since then it has been used as a communal space for dance evenings, theater and the like. In recent decades it has fallen into disrepair, but was completely renovated in 2021. This house is built entirely of xisto (slate) stone from a local quarry. Large white quartz stones, typical of the area, have been incorporated into the walls. All rooms have stone exterior walls, which gives it a very rustic feel. The house has two outdoor areas. A terrace connected to the kitchen, with sofas and lounge chairs and overlooking the valley and the mountain ranges in the distance. The second outdoor area is a partially terraced garden surrounded by stone walls. It has a BBQ, lounge chairs, dining table and a small path leading to the edge of the village. This home has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. It can accommodate up to 6 guests. The rental price includes use of all common areas and the swimming pool.
