Wow, we've just got back to a very damp Devon and we already miss the place. A comfortable and easy stay in the most beautiful surroundings - full of agaves and interesting sedimentary rock backing on to a ecalyptus grove. Easy to drive to the beach on pretty much empty roads through argriculture fields. The village is very sleepy, mainly just cats and older generations of villagers tending to their gardens or having a coffee outside the local's bar. It's an easy walk to the next village of Moledo where there's weirdly a really good vegan resturante - best vegan burgers we've had. And if you want a more classic portuguese menu then the Dino Vestigium resturante is worth a go - really nice guys who run it. The neighbours are lovely and generous, with good knowledge of the area. There's a really lovely cat then visits which made the place feel even more homely. Rudiger was very easy to contact and communicate with. It was, all in all, 5 weeks of bliss.
