Beautiful detached villa with private pool, FibreWi-fi, garden, games room & BBQ

Casa Lumi is a delightful villa furnished to a high standard to offer our clients the best comfort and elegance. It is a haven of tranquility and relaxation surrounded by a large garden with orange, lemon, olive and walnut trees with amazing views of the mountains and countryside. It is not unusual to see locals still working the rich fertile land with an ox-drawn cart in this rural and unspoilt region of North Portugal. The local church (opposite the villa) has traditional festivals throughout the year, most local village activity revolves around the church. A natural water fountain with fresh mountain water is just a short stroll away, wonderful scents of pine and eucalyptus fill the air along the way. Free fast new Fibre Wi-fi / internet in the villa with a Smart TV.

Wooden Gazebo seating area with rattan garden furniture and table, BBQ area and outside seating for an incredible outside dining experience

Fabulous family holiday, loved the house , Diane was amazing, would definitely return x

We had a lovely time at casa lumi, such a stunning and unspoiled area of Portugal. Our family enjoyed hikes to amazing waterfalls, swims in the river homem, stand up paddle boarding, kayaking and visits to Braga and Guimares. The house itself is perfect for 8 people, spacious and well equipped with a beautiful garden area/pool with gorgeous views. Diane was very helpful and responsive to any queries. The local pizza restaurant and O Vaticano were great. Highly recommended to anyone wanting to escape the crowds and holiday in beautiful nature!

Casa e ambiente agradável. No entanto, em dias muito quentes sentimos a falta do ar condicionado e o sino da igreja toca extremamente cedo para quem está de férias. Restaurantes muito bons e proximos da casa.

We arrived quite late & were pleased to have the welcome pack there. The villa is very spacious & the pool area lovely. Local restaurants were very good especially with the local beer at 1 Euro, food is amazing. We had a fantastic holiday and hope to return again.

Very well equipped, plenty of space inside and out. The views are stunning of the mountain ranges. Walking distance to 3 places to eat, though bbq area at Casa is fab for chilling in the evenings.

Lovely remote setting in the hills. Peaceful and relaxing holiday had by all. Didn't need a watch as the charming church bells allowed me to keep times. Locals very pleasant and friendly with bread van and fresh fish brought to the local square each morning. The local eateries are reasonably priced with large portions of good local wholesome food. We loved the BBQ area and pool with fresh oranges and lemons growing in the garden and lovely views of green hills. The national park is beautiful and will return definitely.

This was our first visit to Portugal and whilst it was November we were very lucky with the weather, the villa is large airy and also cosy too in the evening with the log fire burning away. The little village of souto was so friendly with a festival taking place over the weekend we stayed and we were invited to take part in drinking all the local wines they had made together with BBQ and roasted chestnut and dancing it was such a wonderful evening despite them speaking little English and us speaking no Portuguese. We could not believe how cheap it was to eat & drink out there, the wine in the nearby supermarket started from 1 Euro a bottle! We ate out at the pizzeria which is a short walk away but the owner gave us a free lift back up the steep hill, everyone if just so friendly. We also ate twice in the Ovaticano restaurant who's meze meal is huge and so welcoming for my husbands birthday which resulted in them all singing and presenting him with a cake. We also went to Geres for a spa day, which was very relaxing. I would also recommend Quinta Cova de Raposa for the wine tasting tour in Braga which was such a lovely day. Thank you Diane for everything we love your villa and will definitely be back, highly recommended.

Beautiful Villa, garden end swimming pool. a place to come back to, in beautiful North Portugal. Non touristic, you can have long walks in the mountains, taste wine at the neighbors, enjoy the lovely flowers and have a good bbq in the garden. We stayed for two weeks last summer and will be back this summer.

We had a lovely two weeks staying in this very light and spacious villa with great mountain views. The children made good use of the pool table in the games room and the swimming pool and we enjoyed many barbecues on the kitchen veranda next to the orange and lemon trees.There are some very good local restaurants within walking distance (especially O Vaticano opposite the villa) all of which are reasonably priced, the local shop stocks basic items and bread from the daily van is a must ! We found plenty to do in the area and particularly enjoyed swimming in the local rivers and lake at Rio Caldo. This is a great place to stay if you want to experience the non-touristy Portugal where very little English is spoken and 1 euro will buy a bottle of beer or a glass of vinho verde !
