Spacious property with wonderful pool with stunning views
Wonderful spacious well equipped property on a hill above the delightful town of Geres where there are plenty of cafes and restaurants and just enough shops. The hill to the property is quite steep so a bit tough after a meal out so not advised for young children or the unfit. But this means you have a very peaceful private location and the views from the pool are stunning. The National park is beautiful but be warned the roads are windy so you may not want to travel too far once you are here. Antonio was extremely helpful and easy to communicate with. Highly recommended.

Wonderful holiday
We had a fabulous 12 nights in Geres. The house is perfectly situated with Mountain Views. Well equipped and spotlessly clean with a wonderful pool area. So many places to sit and relax and take in the tranquility. Geres has everything you need and kept two teenagers happy also. Antonio and his wife greeted us and showed us around the house and made us feel very welcomed. We would love to return.

Brilliant location and stay
We had a great time! The property is a great base for exploring the national park, one of the circular walks starts within 100m of the house. Particularly enjoyed a swim after a days walking.

Amazing
What a great house and environment. The house is secluded on a mountain slope, but the village, with all restaurants and shops, can be reached within 10 minutes on foot. The house is spacious and fully equipped, especially the kitchen. In the morning it is great to gaze at the mountain wall opposite the house while enjoying your first cup of coffee. The silence, peace and beauty of the house and surroundings is unparalleled.

Beautiful setting and very private
A clean, modern and well equipped property in a beautiful location. The location of the pool is unconventional which might be a problem for families with small children because if they are in the pool they are invisible from the villa. However, the planting around the pool is very attractively landscaped with great views. The short drive up a steep narrow road could prove a problem for less confident drivers. Gerês is a nice village to mooch around with some shops, bakery, butcher, supermarkets, restaurants, etc. There is a park with a small boating lake. Travellers need to be aware how long it takes to drive anywhere because the the roads are so steep and winding. We didn’t want to drive more than 40 minutes in each direction every day so actually very few places are accessible in that time. Highlights for us were Bom Jesus near Braga and Portem da Homem and Sao Bento. When you are driving around there are multiple places you can stop and admire the amazing views down into the valley. Overall a great holiday.

A lovely property. the main bedroom is gorgeous but the three smaller bedrooms and bathroom are dated and need revamping with more bathroom facility upstairs to these rooms. one bathroom for three double bedrooms is not enough.

Good getaway location but Geres is quite dull
We had a very enjoyable week at the house with the family. Geres is quite dull - the shops are basic and the restaurants poor - the countryside up the hill is spectacular and swimming in the reservoir was wonderful. It's not really a base to explore as the last part of the route to Geres is quite slow. The house sort of works although the pool feels to be in the wrong place. There is no air con so the three bedrooms (which are quite small) get very warm. It was very peaceful until the local public pool start blasting music on Saturday and Sunday throughout most of the day. The owners were helpful and very responsive.

Beautiful!
We had a wonderful holiday. The property is wonderfully situated with fabulous views from the all rooms and, of course, the great pool area. Pool area was a real feature with plenty of space, shade and chairs. House was in great condition, very impressive master bedroom with large and modern en-suite. Lovely welcome drink provided by the hosts too. The house is a short, but steep (!) walk to Geres which is a charming place to wander around. Highly recommended.

Beautiful, comfortable home on the mountainside. House is very clean with all that you need for a vacation. Antonio was very helpful in getting us situated and was available for any questions. Very much enjoyed the mountain retreat and would highly recommend to friends or family.
