Casa Guardião do Castelo

Todos os quartos têm WC, mesa da sala e do exterior grande e dá para estarmos todos juntos. Janelas fecham completamente e por isso não entra luz nenhuma.

Com crianças e mais complicado porque tem muitas escadas.

This is a beautifully renovated property in a charming rural location. The property and outdoor space are immaculately clean and tidy. The property is cleverly divided allowing use by one family or a group of friends or family, who could share outdoor areas but have completely separate areas of accommodation, each with its own kitchen, sitting area, bedroom, bathroom. The outdoor space is very well thought out with a main eating area on a large terrace directly outside the kitchen and another smaller area up by the pool with stunning views of the mountains. We enjoyed sitting there for breakfast in the sun, or in the shade of the parasol on a sunny afternoon. The swimming pool is absolutely beautiful and finished to a very high standard. There's good parking directly outside. There are lovely walks just outside the property to 'Castelo de Arnoia' and lovely nearby woodland trails. Many of the North Portugal sights are around a 60-90 minute drive away. Our particular favourites were: the suspension bridge and Paiva walkway in Arouca, Braga and Ponte de Lima.

The lovely cobbled streets mean occassional night time traffic is quite loud but the majority of the time it's very peaceful. The external doorways are quite low so if you are very tall remember to bend down to avoid bumping your head.

Really nice place in the mountains. Very beatuful views. 500m walk up to Castle of Arnoia. A restaurant with good prices close. Very clean. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped. A welcoming wine in the refrigerator to consume.
