Azenha do Corvo is one of the nicest places I've ever been to. I enjoyed the secluded location (although I hated the bumpy and narrow road). The smells of the flourishing garden, the charming birds, the goats and roosters outside the fence and the the sound of the brook were lovely.
It is somehow difficult to find the right way to the house because the location provided in the map in AirBnB site is not accurate - just ask Paola for instructions and you'll be there.
There are 2 cottages to choose from. I chose the upper cottage for it's one storey building. The lower cottage has three levels and gives a more compact feel. But if you come at cold season there is a fireplace in the bedroom which is an asset.
The upper cottage has separate spacious kitchen which is reasonably well equipped and has 2 nice armchairs and a reading lamp. Only I would appreciate more modern coffee maker.
The upper cottage is very cosy and I liked the decor of the house. The bed is very comfortable. There is an unlimited supply of hot water. The wifi is efficient with 4-8 Mbit/sec transfer speed - enough for Netflix :-)
I liked the proximity of small shops in Almocageme and Colares and obviously wonderfull Praia da Adraga - absolutely marvellous and only 3 km away!
And last but not least there is Paola with her "shanti shanti" approach. She's indeed a wonderful host and she helped us with things not particularly connected with the stay in her house. I appreciate that she always responded immediatelly to every message.
I could probably write more and more but let it be enough for the final word - I dream of coming back :-)
