Casas de Férias em: Provesende

JASPERTHEDOG Reino Unido

Provesende was probably not the most sensible choice for an over night stop in October especially as we left Porto 3 hours later than planned. By the time we had wound our way along the Douro Valley and up the mountain to the village it was unforgivably late. Cold and tired, it was misty, dark and the village deserted when we arrived at around 11.00 o'clock. Casa da Jesus is, thankfully, easy to find and fitted with a bell to toll, which we did, rousing all the dogs for a kilometer. It also caught the attention of the next door nighbour, a resolute young lady member of thr Fire Brigade. She rousted the house owner who arrived with his wife to inform us 1.) that the house was not ready and 2.) he had told B**king.com of this fact and 3.) he had refused the booking. However, Portuguese hospitality won the day and the Fire-person, the owner's wife and all set to and cleaned a bathroom and made a bed for us at the same time as sitting us down with a fresh loaf, cheese and fruit for supper. History will be unable to realise just how grateful we were for this amazing show of good will. Casa da Jesus is perched on top of a serious hill, overlooking miles of the Douro Valley, the vineyards and distant blue mountains. The silence at night has to be experienced to be believed. The house was not set up for two foolish old Englishmen turning up late, but is perfectly suited for a family or group for a longer stay. Clean, well equipped and in a great location it is a lovely place to stay. Thank-you all at Provesende for your open hearted welcome.

By far the most authentic experience of our trip to Portugal. The host was so generous with her time. We enjoyed a nice walk around the vineyard and meals on the balcony with one of the nicest views of the Douro valley. Great Experience!!!

Everything! This was one of our favourite places on a months trip in the region. The communication with hosts was great from the moment we booked. The drive from Pinhao up through the vineyards to the village was delightful and the welcome gift of homemade almonds tarts and some of the hosts own port was very welcome and delicious!! The apartment itself was spotless and very well equipped for any length of stay. As we had a two year old with us we dined at the apartment every evening and the kitchen was better equipped than our own!! Lovely balcony with views of the valley and to listen to the sounds of peaceful village life. Our hosts welcomed us to their own home to use their wonderful pool and terrace. They provided lots of toys for our toddler who took a real shine to the place. A tour of the vineyard was such a treat also. Hrougjly recommend this place. No shops in the village so the hosts tell you to come prepared so come stocked up to enjoy a wonderful stay!

A casa fica dentro de uma vinícola, com uma linda vista para as vinhas. É espaçosa e os quartos são confortáveis. A piscina também é boa, também com uma bela vista.

This is an amazing house, with amazing views and very thoroughly supplied. The house is very modern and of the highest quality. My husband was super impressed - and that is unusual. Communication was easy as was the check-in, check-out. We didn't get to use the pool, but it was very inviting. This house could comfortably accommodate a large group as there are many sitting areas (inside and outside.) We were only 3 and loved every moment there. Highly recommended.

The main living/dining area is the heart of the house, with plenty of comfy seating and a lovely view. The hostess was wonderful, taking good care of us with a cooked breakfast, tasty coffee and laundry service.
