Casa da Galega is a traditional house at the centre of Golegã, the Lusitanu's Horse capital! For 23 years this house was the hideaway of a very well-known Norwegian sculpture Arne Vinje Gunnerud! During a visit to Golegã Arne became good friends with Mestre Martins Correia, a local artist. Although modest, this house offers two comfortable bedrooms, a nice living room with a kitchenette and one bathroom. Outside, the patio with a lovely porch is the perfect spot to enjoy sunny days!

Why they chose this property
I bought this property that belonged to a Norwegian sculpture, because it's a typical and charming cottage, filled with art pieces in the walls, made by Arne Vinje Gunerrud that makes it unique. I believe that it is a great place for a country weekend or a vacation and it’s a place where you will be comfortable and welcome!
