My partner and I stayed here for a month. It's a cozy and well-designed place, just big enough for a couple. The hosts are very hospitable and easy to communicate with, even offering to wash the bedding/towels for us over our long stay. We did miss not having a washing machine, and the weekly trips to the laundromat took up quite a bit of time. We also missed warmth and sunshine despite being here in June. We were wearing fleece jackets indoors because there is no sunlight coming into the place and the humidity of the mountains exacerbates the coolness. That said, we could easily venture out into the sun. The village of Penedo is picturesque and beautiful--smiling locals greeting us everyday and lovely walks into the woods all around. We cannot imagine being here without a car, and a very small one at that too.
