Coja Holiday Cottage, Lovely Views, Near River Beach, Sleeps 6/7

Lovely self catering holiday cottage in the attractive market town of Coja in the Arganil district.
This property was renovated in 2007 to provide comfortable self catering facilities for your perfect holiday. Many original features have been kept such as the stone walls, large wood beams and the wooden shutters. There are 3 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living room with Portuguese satellite TV (includes some foreign channels) and wood burning stove for the winter. There is a door that opens on to the large balcony overlooking the river and across the valley to the mountains beyond. The kitchen and dining area are in the old converted wine cellar which opens out to the patio and garden with stone built BBQ and outdoor dining furniture.
New for 2014 free wi fi connection in the house.
The house is 200ms to the river beach and 500ms from the town centre with cafes, restaurants etc.
Coja is a small market town of approx. 1500 inhabitants in the district of Arganil The Rio Alva runs through the centre and is spanned by an ancient Roman bridge to join the 2 halves. The house is situated in the more residential half overlooking the river and across to the old cobbled centre on the other side.
Central Portugal is a beautiful, rural part of Portugal that remains relatively undiscovered by the hordes of tourists that are normally attracted to the Algarve in the South. There are forests and rivers, mountains and valleys, rural villages and ancient cities to explore. A beautiful area to come and explore or just relax!

Characterful? Or just old and in need of modernisation?
To each their own opinion..... for me it was the latter. Very dark and musty in some parts of the house and very uncomfortable beds. In its favour, it’s very close to the local river beach.

La maison de nos rêves
Cette maison ancienne en schiste avec vue sur le rio Alva nous a enveloppé de bonheur. On part se baigner à pied à la praia à 300 m et on part faire les courdes et boire l'apéro à pied à 500 m au village. Belle ballade à pied pour aller à Barril d'Alva Nous n'avons pas eu le temps d'aller à Gois ni à Piodâo, il faut au moins une semaine pour tout faire.

Excelente estadia
A casa é bonita, muito bem equipada e serve bem para 6/7 pessoas, tal como anunciado. Fica bastante próxima da praia fluvial mais próxima (cerca de 5 minutos a pé!) e muito próxima também do centro de Côja com bares, cafés, restaurantes, talhos, clínicas, farmácia, etc.
