Wonderful! Wonderful wonderful!.Bucolic bliss looking out the glass panel doors in the morning I saw hydrangea roses, wisteria and scattered in the distance. All sorts of fruit trees. An animal lover's heaven with two friendly, cute cats and two goats. And Manuela the landlord was wonderful. Wonderful! Wonderful patient, kind and fun

Manuela went above and beyond in accommodating my stay. I’m so grateful I stayed here. It felt like a real sanctuary. I already miss her cats, one in particular that gives the best massages. And the forest that instantly balances you out and reminds you what’s important. O.K., I’ll stop being sentimental. If you’re looking for refuge, look no further. :’)

Manuela is the most wonderful host. She is so incredibly generous, kind, patient, and accommodating. I felt so welcome in her home before I ever even arrived, and then somehow even more so once I finally did. We've shared meals, laughs, & great conversation, and she's been amazing for giving tours of the coolest spots & events in the area, and even just with helping to get around, in general. She has a gorgeous, peaceful home on truly beautiful land that she works so hard to take care of. She genuinely creates a safe, healing space. This was an incredible first place to land in my transition into Portugal, and I feel so blessed for the sanctuary and friendship I've found with Manuela. I could not be more grateful for my time here.

Manuela is kind, helpful, and makes you feel right at home. She has been such a wonderful person to meet on my journey and I am so happy to have had the opportunity to stay in her gorgeous home and get to know her.
I booked the green room and loved waking up every morning to the birds singing and the peacefulness of the property. The cats and goats are a blessing and loved being in their energy. This space is is more remote which I prefer, but you can walk or take a taxi to Lousa or take the bus to Coimbra, and from there head off on an adventure. I have really loved being in this space and in Manuela's home. I highly recommend her and her sanctuary for anyone looking for a quiet space or for inner reflection.
