3 Bedroom Place in Geraz do Minho, Povoa de Lanhoso

The “Casa de Penas de Cima” farm is located in the north of Portugal in Geraz do Minho, 15km from Braga, 20km from Guimarães, 20km from the Peneda-Gêres national park and 70 km from Porto and its international airport.
Set in a splendid location where you can relax and enjoy a peaceful and restful stay, the estate features 4 beautifully renovated independent farm buildings in an authentic Portuguese style:
• ‘Casa da Borboleta’, a 3-bedroom house,
• ‘Casa do Forno’, a 2-bedroom house with a private garden,
• ‘Casa da Colmeia’, a 2-bedroom house,
• ‘Casa das Azeitonas’, a 2-bedroom house.
The estate includes a stunning shared garden surrounding a large shared swimming pool (7 x 13 meters).
There is also a shared games room with a pool table, table football and table tennis.
Wi-Fi access is available in each house, though please note that internet connectivity and phone signal may be weak due to the limited signal in the valley.
The farm is ideally located for exploring Braga, Bom Jesus, Porto, the coast, Peneda-Gerês National Park, Guimarães, Barcelos, Ponte de Lima, and more.
Casa da Borboleta was the original farmhouse and is the largest of the four houses. The house has two floors with direct access to the inner courtyard and the pool area.
Ground Floor:
• A very large, fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher, microwave, stove, oven, refrigerator, and a table for six.
• A separate dining room that also seats six.
• A comfortable sitting room opening onto the patio, equipped with a TV/video, and a traditional wood-burning stove.
• Two patios: one at the end of the living room, overlooking the pool and gardens, with a large table for six. The other private patio is smaller and is on the side of the kitchen.
• A toilet and shower on the ground floor.
First Floor:
• A landing area with large west-facing windows, offering a lovely spot to sit and watch the sunset.
• Three bedrooms:
o The master bedroom has a double bed, a large antique dresser, built-in wardrobes, and an en-suite bathroom with a shower and separate toilet.
o The other two bedrooms share a bathroom with a bathtub, bidet, sink, and toilet. One of these rooms has two single beds, while the other has a bed that can be used as a single or converted into a 140 cm double bed.
The bedrooms have air conditioning.
Casa da Borboleta can accommodate a maximum of 6 people.
The house is an excellent example of a traditional farmhouse, spacious and renovated to a high standard. The furniture has been chosen to match the Portuguese style of the house, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience.
Originally the family’s farmhouse, it would have been the central hub of the farm—where the family ate, relaxed, and slept. The current dining room was once the wine cellar, and during renovations, two large stone wine vats were removed, suggesting the farm was once a major wine producer—over a hundred barrels per year. The living area at the end of the house, with doors opening onto the outer patio, was once where the farmers’ cows were kept and milked.
The house is strictly non-smoking.

Summary: Casa das Borboletas is part of a 3-house complex that shares a pool, a garden, and a game room. We visited in early August and it was very hot. Fortunately, the house had air-conditioning and effective ways to cover the windows and avoid unbearable heat. And the pool was a truly wonderful resource. It was kept really clean and the temperature of the water was always inviting, even in the evening. The Casa das Borboletas is very spacious and has access to several spaces outside that are really inviting. Every morning, we sat reading in the shade by the pool and enjoyed the views of the garden and the nearby region. Geraz do Minho is a small quiet place but there is easy access to Povoa do Lanhoso and to Braga, a lovely small city. However, even though the access to these places is easy, you really have to drive there if you want to get any essentials. Which brings me to the only complaint we had -- the hosts do not provide some essentials that would be expected. We stayed for 9 days, and found that we had to buy napkins, paper towels, toilet paper, and trash bags. The hosts also did not provide pool towels or coal for the grill. Additionally, while the kitchen was very well supplied with cooking utensils, there was no olive oil, cooking oil, or cooking spices. We ended up buying all of those things and leaving the stuff we did not use for the next guests. And this is the thing, the hosts probably would not even need to purchase most of these things...
