Une villa très agréable et riche en découvertes

La villa est spacieuse, bien exposée, au calme dans un océan d'arbres. Les pièces sont grandes, les lits généreux. L'agencement est réussi, la maison reste fraiche en journée et sa décoration est incroyable, un vrai petit musée éthnologique à découvrir tout les jours ! La véranda est conviviale et possède une grande table très agréable. Le jardin qui entoure la maison est un régal absolu, pour les yeux , les oreilles, le nez comme pour la bouche. La terrasse haute est très bien équipée, elle accueille une piscine fraiche, propre et de taille raisonnable (elle parait petite sur les photos). Nous avons passé 3 semaines jusqu'à 8 adultes avec beaucoup, beaucoup, beaucoup de plaisir. Merci à Brian et Rosy pour leur accueil très chaleureux et très gourmand - le gateau au citron à été particulièrement apprécié !

About the host

Host profile image
I recently retired after spending 27 years as a Documentary Maker and working on International News stories around the world. I was in search of a slice of Paradise and found it here at Quinta da Granja. Most of my days are spent looking after the Mediterranean Gardens surrounded by Woodlands. The peace and tranquility I find living here has been so beneficial to my well being and health.
