Wir verbrachten wunderbare 14 Tage in der kleinen Mühle mit einem tollen Blick über die Weinberge. Von dort kann man gut Ausflüge in umliegende Orte und Städte, aber auch ans Meer machen. Leider war es sehr windig, aber das bringt der Standort einer ehemaligen Windmühle natürlich mit sich. Die Gastgeberinnen waren sehr gastfreundlich und fürsorglich. Für ein Paar sehr zu empfehlen!

Muito obrigada René and Julia,
It was a pleasure to have you with us and we are very happy you enjoyed your stay!
We had an excellent stay at the mill, everything was as described. The location is very much to be recommended, but guests need to be aware that this is not a "normal" house, but a special place with a special architecture. Lovely view and beautiful surroundings. The restaurant Pateo Velho nearby is excellent!
Many thanks to Clotilde and in particular to Sandra for the warm welcome and detailed information!
De Hare Mill is een authentieke molen, gelegen op een prachtige plek met fraai uitzicht vanuit de "tuin". Bij binnenkomst is het wel even wennen: de ruimtes zijn klein en - vooral! - laag en het trapje naar de eerste en tweede verdieping is steil en smal. Er is heel weinig ruimte om bagage weg te bergen of kleding op te hangen. De molen is daarom minder geschikt voor oudere en/of moeilijk bewegende personen en zeker niet voor kinderen. Na enige gewenning neemt de positieve kant de overhand: charme en authenticiteit! Bij ons verblijf was de molen vrij vochtig (handdoeken drogen niet of zeer langzaam), maar dat was het gevolg van een zeer natte en koude maand april. Mede door de fraaie omgeving is ons verblijf zeker een succes geworden!

Hello! :)
I'm glad that you chose my lodging to stay :). I thank you for the comment you left and I'm also glad that it was a pleasant stay! I would like to say that
the Windmill is not a common lodging. When I adapted the mill I tried to keep all the traditional parts of the engine that make it unique. Also, at that time, people weren't so tall, so that is a problem nowadays! :)
The mill needed isolation to stop the wind from comming in. For that reason, when the weather is not that nice to our visitors, its best to use the equipments available: venters, heaters, towels and anti humidity machine.
Regarding children, they can stay at the mill, but with supervision. We have had little visitors before and they loved it!
Again, I'm glad for your visit, hope to see you again soon! :)
Kind regards.

Lovely!!!
The Mill is so romantic! A little kitchen, confortable bed and it's very quiet! good for 2 persons! Clotilde was very kind and understandable. She is ready for helping every time you need! We also had bread every morning at the mill! Fantastic!!
It's better go there with a car so that you can visit Portugal as we did!
