A painstakingly restored 300 year old farmhouse, which was lovingly restored by the owners, available for holiday let near the central Portugal town of Penela. The owners have lavished affection on this property and as such visitors are privy to a property which has had every detail contemplated over and is a home rather than just another holiday let though the owners wish for clients to respect and enjoy the property as if it were there own home. The village of Podentes has old fashioned values and despite the ravishes of time upon the rest of the world, rotavators (road worthy tractors) are still the mode of transport for many within the village. Podentes is a place where everyone will make you feel welcome and by the end of your stay you will have friends for life, even if you can't understand what they are saying. If you want to experience a holiday in real Portugal with real people but with English comforts (such as a comfy bed) then this is the house for you. The property briefly comprises: Bedrooms:
Huge master bedroom with queen size, comfy bed, Sky satellite
TV, private balcony with views to mountains. Bathrooms:
En-suite to master bedroom has a double bath, separate shower
cubicle, double basin vanity unit, wc and bidet. Kitchen:
Our kitchen is so good to cook in, you may not want to go out.
We have a SMEG range cooker, SMEG dishwasher, double Living Room: Comfortably lounge has sofas, bean bags, wood burning stove, a 37" plasma TV, Freesat SKY, Nintendo Wii, a quality stereo, CDs, a good selection of DVDs and videos and a piano, albeit a bit out of tune. Open beamed dining room with galleried landing and stairs leading to lounge on ground floor. We provide freshly laundered towels and a beach towel each. The beds will be made up on your arrival and spare bedding will be available for stays of more than a week. We will be happy to provide a clean through service after a week for a small charge. The property owners, have tried to make the property as children friendly as possible with the provision of staircase gates and the like if possible for families with young children. Also available in the house for your use are the following: Concept 2 rowing machine, free weights, sit up bar, a big selection of children's and family board games (including chess, scrabble, monopoly) children's books and toys, a PS2, indoor football table, golf clubs for guest use, step boxes, a really big selection of books with something for everyone, a French boule set and a darts board. We also have two bikes suitable for six years and above, with helmets etc and tricycles for ages two years and above (if you wish to use these, please advise us beforehand and we will make sure they are left out for you.)

Distances
The house is situated in the lovely village of Podentes. Three bakery vehicles visit the village daily (except Sunday). A friendly (and cheap) cafe/bar and a little shop for basics. We are very conveniently situated for Penela, Coimbra, Condeixa and Miranda do Corvo. Whilst we do not have a pool there is no shortage of swimming facilities available close by. Penela has an indoor 50 metre pool and a children's pool. Condeixa has larger outdoor pools and a cafe. Up in the hills above Penela you will find the natural lake at Loucinha which is free to use. There are BBQ and picnic facilities there and a restaurant which is open in the summer months. At Lousa we have another natural lake in the hills with a restaurant recognised as one of the best in the region. In Pombal (approx 30 minutes) you will find an outdoor water park which will provide all day entertainment for the whole family. This area of Portugal is simply stunning with a wealth of things to do and see, unrivalled anywhere else in the country. What's more, as it is relatively unknown and un-commercial you will find prices for food, drink, ice creams, entertainment, pools etc are very, very reasonable. |
