lovely garden around property, good sized car park, nice to have tea and coffee facilities in the breakfast room, as other places in Portugal didn't have any such facilities. Host was very helpful, speaks many languages and gave us two excellent restaurant suggestions in nearby village and rung up to make reservations for us. We stayed there in late October so didn't use swimming pool so can't comment on that. You do need own transport to use this place.

We should have asked for a room with a more sunny aspect, as in late October sun for someone from England is very important!

The pool place is beautiful, full of shadows which is really something important in Alentejo. The pool water was at 30 degrees and the temperature was close to 40 degrees. The house is full of vintage objects, like old telephones, and writing machines. I found myself searching for old treasures. The bedroom was clean and spacious. The Bathroom was also great. The property owner lives there, so you feel at home. Everything is well decorated. I felt I was visiting family. Breakfast is simple but good,. I recommend going outside late night (around 1h30 -2 a.m. to see the sky. Is beautiful.

The only thing I would improve is to have access to the wardrobe (it was closed with a key) and to have some hangers on the wall for the towels / used clothes.

Victoria was a wonderfully generous host. Because we were cycling she drove to local restaurants on both nights we were there. There is lovely pool and garden. The room was spacious and charming with a great view of the castle and village

Whilst Victoria was a superb host, the other staff were dour and unfriendly

Lovely area, great breakfast, swimming pool, beautiful and peaceful environment, great coastal walks and beaches nearby

The online booking process had a few steps, that felt time consuming. In the end this wasn't such a big deal. We loved it so much we booked another night

Very nice owner, great breakfast, pool and comfortable room

You need a car to do something, sightseeing etc... no public transport

Breakfast was excellent quality , very cozy environment and felt at home . Excellent decoration good taste. Close to monsaraz beach

This was our second visit, to what is a gorgeous family home. It is a little piece of heaven situated on a plain, near lakes just below the beautiful town of Monsaraz. Breakfast is the best ever. Fabulous selection of fresh fruits and juices local cheeses, ham, salami and the best warm croissants ever. Thank you Sergio and your amazing ladies. We hope to see you again.

Nothing

Clean, very spacious room; delicious breakfasts; kind staff, helpful host; generous offer to do our laundry; lovely garden; interesting area

The bed was a bit hard; otherwise everything was fine

Host was very friendly. The property was spotless. Plenty of parking. Great pool. Very close to Monsaraz and the observatory - 400m or so

Loved the garden and pool, we had a nice big room which stayed cool throughout the heat of the day even without using the AC.

Woken up 6:30am by garden machinery, not sure if it was the lawn mower or leaf blower, I understand the garden has to be maintained but either warn the guests about the early hour or schedule at a later time
