“The house and the yard is much bigger and better than it may seem. We were pleasantly surprised. The house has everything you may need and even more. Would love to go there again. The village is beautiful as well.”

“Ficámos na casa camélia e foi muito agradável. Tinha o básico do que precisávamos, não faltando nada. Boa limpeza, e um miminho no frigorífico quando chegámos. A envolvência do local, a serenidade e o ar puro fazem-nos querer voltar.”

“A casa em si é muito boa, mais do que suficiente para nós (5 pessoas + 2 cães). O espaço exterior é relativamente grande, permitindo que os cães andem à vontade. A piscina, embora não seja muito grande, é suficiente para se refrescar.”

“Do espaço exterior, da salamandra, de haver lenha para fazer lareira. Gostámos das condições gerais da casa, de ter toalhas e de ter aquecimento. Também apreciámos a localização, por estar numa aldeia onde podemos passear e as pessoas são simpáticas.”

Casa Branca is one of the oldest (1600 AD) houses in the picturesque village of Covas, Tabua. It has been restored with love to the modern standard while retaining its traditional charm in 2013. The property has an outdoor swimming pool, perfect for dipping in after a sauna session. For those that want to lounge around, there is a pool terrace furnished with deck chairs, parasols and hammock. Perfect for relaxing with a nice book with a chill glass of wine. There is a dedicated BBQ area with an outdoor dining. The landscape garden consisted of olive groves, various fruit trees and vines and a badminton net over a grass lawn. For the little and active ones, there is a storeroom with swimming pool floats, toys and games.
We always have a passion for Portugal and it is always our dream to live here. We love being here and like to share our house to others when we are not.
At this unique spot - in the middle of the village and together with our Portuguese villagers - we can fully enjoy ourselves. Here we can relax with a nice book, a nice meal and a good glass of wine.
