free rangeing pigs,chickens,guinea fowl and ducks. Free range orgainc eggs are offered for sale at a small cost. We grow a variety of vegetables and salad ingredients which you are free to use as you wish during your holiday with us. Down at the farmhouse we have a 13metre x 6metre swimming pool which you are also free to use as and when you wish.
The theme of this holiday is peacefull,tranquil and laid back go out and explore on foot or by car or just laze by the pool or on the verandah of your log cabin and marvel at the peace and tranquility and 360 degree view of unspoilt countryside set before your eyes. We are also close to several very large fishing lakes to.

Guestbook for Quinta Azenha/Log Cabin

Well what can we say, it is every bit as peaceful as you said it would be. The pool is great, especailly after a day of sight seeing to just jump in and cool off and then just to sit and chat over a beer whist you bbq'd us some of your own produced free range organic pork and served it up with wine,salad and bread. It has been truly magical my friend, definitely not to be missed. We will be back,for sure. Ricky and Debbs. Doncaster.

We had the most peaceful and relaxing holiday ever. As you said your farm hand Milhio was excellent,he let us feed the pigs and hens and ducks. Your salad veg was fresher than fresh and the taste is so much better than at home. The local bars and restaurants in the village are great and the villagers are really really friendly and nice people.Yes we really had a great time. Berny and Greta. Sheffield.
