A very fine bed and breakfast: the beds were good, the breakfast was huge with typical Portugese products and in a nice setting, a nice swimming pool, a large garden, lovely snookerroom with books and games. Laura is a very friendly host, who speaks English very well. A place to go back to. Thanks Laura.
