An Excellent Village House

Great vllage house with full amenities incl terrace and swimming pool, wonderful & warm host. Great value! Thanks Alexandra. The only 1 thing that bordered me staying there is that there are so many flies around and they get into the house easily. We had to constantly guard against them during meals.

Uma casa tranquila

Fomos à procura de tranquilidade e foi o que encontrámos. Apesar de se situar em Terrugem parece que estamos no meio do campo! Uma casa em que nada falta, muito bem equipada e tudo de qualidade! Recomenda-se ;) Ana

Elegancia y tranquilidad

Es un challet decorado con mucha elegancia y equipado con todas las comodidades. Es el sitio ideal para llevar a los niños, pues tiene a su disposición juguetes, cuna y la silla de comer. El jardín es estupendo, la piscina permite refrescarnos en los días calurosos de Alentejo, y también es muy agradable comer en la terraza de la casa. El challet está situado en un pueblo muy tranquilo, con buena vecindad. Quien desee dar un paseo en bicicleta, podrá hacerlo en las bicicletas que están disponibles para los huéspedes. Hemos pasado un fin de semana muy placentero en familia y pensamos volver a repetirlo muy pronto.

Tranquilidade e descanso

Casa decorada com gosto ao modo rústico, possuí todas as comodidades necessárias, áreas exteriores muito agradáveis com pátio e piscina que permitem diversos momentos lúdicos de descontracção. Espaço versátil que permite passar bons momentos quer como casal, grupo de amigos ou família. Espaço reservado que permite manter a sua privacidade. Aldeia de gente afável e acolhedora.

Fantástica

La casa dispone de TODO lo necesario para disfrutar de unas vacaciones tranquilas. Es amplia y limpia. Alexandra, la propietaria, cuida todos los detalles para que no falte de nada durante la estancia. Nos sentimos como en nuestra propia casa. El jardín con la piscina, es ideal para pasar las tardes en familia. Estuvimos realmente bien y probablemente repetiremos. Gracias por la atención recibida, sobretodo a nuestro bebé que tenía cuna, trona, juguetes, bañera... Realmente increíble!

Este sítio é ideal para quem deseja um descanso em pleno, aqui apercebemos-nos que o silêncio existe... A Casa dos Paquetes corresponde ao anunciado. A casa está decorada com muito bom gosto e é muito confortável. O espaço exterior é muito agradável. Passamos cá 1 fds e agora 1 semana e seguramente iremos voltar. A proprietária é muito simpática e atenciosa. Recomendamos! Sónia, Félix e Luísinha

Um oásis de comodidades

A casa dos paquetes ofereceu-nos um conjunto de comodidades dignas de um bom hotel. Apesar de estar num recanto de Portugal estivemos sempre perto de locais históricos que vale a pena conhecer. Aproveitem a localidade (Terrugem), assim como nós o fizemos passando pelos vários locais todos cheios de simpatia e boa comida. Fomos bem acolhidos, numa casa típica que nos deu todas as comodidades. Nós gostamos e esperamos regressar.
