Casa do Cabeço

Casa muito agradável e extremamente limpa. Anfitriões de uma simpatia extrema e óptimo pequeno almoço. Gostei imenso e voltarei sempre que tiver oportunidade de regressar a esta zona

This is the most amazing place we stayed in Portugal. A grand old, but modernized, home, Marta and Iker have created a welcoming, pleasant and restful place to explore and rejuvenate while on a tour of Portugal. Whether hiking mountain trails or just reading a book and listening to your playlist, this is the place. Breakfast is great. As an extra special item Iker is a chief and cooks up exquisite dinners. There are some good restaurants in the area too. This is a place where you can see and experience the real Portugal.

It's a beautiful and peaceful location. Marta and Iker are a lovely couple who will help you make the most of your stay. Breakfast and snacks are delicious and you'll have the added privilege of meeting they're adorable dogs, Dillon and Dexter

We found this hotel spontanously on our roadtrip to Porto. It was a great decision to stay here! The region is beautiful and the house is stunning!! Marta and Iker are extremely nice and warm people. They gave us great tips for restaurants and activities. The garden is a dream and the house is beautifully renovated. The breakfast was great made wirh love and local ingredients. It is also possible to book a 3 course dinner since Iker is a great chef. Unfortunately, we were too late for this but we recommend booking this unforgettable experience. We hope to come back some day!

What I loved about this place, was everything. Marta and Iker both lived in Londen for a long time so they speak excellent English and Spanish and portugees. They are kind, low profile but deliver excellent service. The garden is very big and there are many platforms, fruittrees, sun and shade, so you can find your favourite place to sit, hide from others, or sit together, watch the view, sleep in a hammock, read, what ever you like. The breakfast was as wonderful as the dinner Iker cooked for us the night we did not want to go anywhere else. He worked as a chef in Londen so he's an excellent cook and Marta dressed up in her former profession to do the arrangements and served us with a bright cheeky smile. Half an hour later she changed roles and was the lady of the house again, the next morning the house was cleaned by this superwoman who loves to work with wood and wants tools for presents. Everything was well organised, even my mass was organised neatly. There was nothing in this house that wasn't thought off, or taken care of in the best possible way. If I ever get an afterlife, I either want to be a dog adopted by this couple or a tree in their beautiful garden. The good thing about this place is also that there are some nice things to do nearby. There is a beautiful lagoon and a waterfall, secret places to swim, old houses in the neighborhood, beautiful picknick areas and churches, nice places to have lunch and dinner and beautiful mountains with boulders and many flowers and herbs.

We stayed almost a week with Dylan and Dexter. It was a great experience, we ran through the garden, jointly barked at anyone outside the gate, fell asleep in sun and share, and had great food, we even peed against an 300 year old chestnut tree. Their humans, I think they are called Iker and Marta, were also kind and understanding. They made a great home for us, and we felt like Royal Dogs. They really let us sleep in a very quiet environment. They even had beds and showers for us, imagine.
