Fist of all Jane is a great host. If you are looking for a hideaway then the Studio is a perfect choice. Jane is not only great, she is a pro - always supportive with so many ideas and advices. The Studio itself is exactly like in the description and the other reviews. It has everything what you need, not more and we liked it very much this way. It is a perfect place to relax and calm yourself down. I think in the warmer season the place with all his nice features (terrasse, pool, garden) is perfect. For us the weather was a challenge this November, very wet and sometimes very cold. It was a learning curve how to balance the humidity and temperatures in the Studio - but Jane always supported us where ever she could.
Over all we had a great family time at Jane's Studio - and we loved Penedo with his charme. But if you go there bring your driving skills with you and a car which is not too big. The streets are narrow.
