    We had a fantastic stay! The hotel had great facilities, including plenty of bathrooms and quirky sleeping quarters. The sound of the stream next to our room was so relaxing. The beautiful garden with the pond was a perfect spot to relax and unwind. We also enjoyed swinging on the hammock and falling asleep to the soothing sound of the water. The host was very welcoming and provided drinks and dinner for a small fee. We loved the peaceful location, away from the noise and traffic of the city. the cleanliness, facilities, parking, transportation, location, breakfast.

    Nothing negative to say.

    Located in the tranquil woods, this hidden gem offers a dreamlike experience. Guests will be enchanted by the mesmerizing sound of the nearby waterfall, providing a peaceful atmosphere. The quaint wooden hostel is furnished with handcrafted pieces, adding to its charm. The fully equipped kitchen and beautiful outdoor area with fairy lights create a magical ambiance. The friendly host ensures a warm welcome and offers delicious drinks and dinner for a small fee. The relaxing sleeping quarters, the pond to chill feet, and the hummock to swing on make for a truly rejuvenating stay.

    Limited accessibility to nearby attractions.

    What a magical and unique experience! The secluded location in the woods, with a stream running through the hostel, was absolutely breathtaking. The private room next to the old watermill, with a see-thru glass floor to view the flowing river, was truly one-of-a-kind. The owner was kind and helpful, and the communal facilities were clean with hot water. Sleeping to the sound of the flowing water was incredibly soothing, and the healing properties of the waterfall were a pleasant surprise. The dinner conversation and atmosphere by the waterfall were unforgettable.

    Nothing to fault.

    I had a wonderful stay at a charming watermill retreat tucked away in a peaceful valley. The room in the old mill was spacious and clean, with a unique glass floor overlooking the flowing water below. The sound of the nearby waterfall provided a soothing ambiance. The friendly and multilingual host was always available to offer helpful advice about the region. Despite its secluded location, the accommodation was great value for money. I highly recommend this hidden gem for nature lovers and those seeking a romantic getaway.

    The value for money at this beautiful hotel was exceptional. The rooms were comfortable and inviting, and the location next to the waterfall added a magical touch. The staff treated us with kindness and hospitality, making our stay even more enjoyable.

    The breakfast could have been improved with a wider variety of options.

    We stayed at a charming albergue nestled in the forest, just 1.5km outside the village. The sound of the nearby waterfall was so soothing, and the location was absolutely beautiful. The beds were handmade and comfortable, and we even had real bedding. We enjoyed cooking our own meals in the kitchen, and the host provided affordable groceries. The albergue is constantly improving and getting better by the day!

    I had a fantastic stay at Watermill Moinho Garcia in Pinheiro da Bemposta. The building itself was incredibly charming, with a unique watermill and a beautiful interior design. My room was clean, spacious, and had a very comfortable bed. The bathroom was convenient and well-maintained. Despite the cold weather, the room had a pleasant heating system that kept me warm throughout the night. The owner was friendly and helpful, and the positive vibe of the place made me feel relaxed and at ease. The surrounding garden and forest were absolutely stunning, providing a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. I also enjoyed the option to order dinner from the owner. I had a magical experience at Watermill Moinho Garcia and highly recommend it.

    The only minor issue I encountered was a mosquito that entered the room at night. However, the host provided mosquito repellent, so it wasn't a major inconvenience.
