Appreciation note from Ánxela Doval, Anton Becares and friends (ES826), October 2024:
"Moito obrigada Isabel, son persoas moi acolledoras e xenerosas, alegrome de telos coñecido.
Pasamos uns días maravillosos, foi unha verdadeira descoberta para nós coñecer esta parte do país:
fixemos um lindo paseo polas praias de Santa Cruz e comemos bacalhau en Torres Vedras;
rota de 12 kms percorrendo a península de Peniche;
museu de Lourinhã, Obidos e Lagos de Óbidos;
Cascais e Ericeira!"

Appreciation note from Miguel and María A.Jiménes Santos (ES52074), August 2024:
"Thank you so much! We love Portugal! We have had great days. Thank you."

Appreciation note from Ivan and Carine Van Lierde - Belgium (BE50637), June 2024:
"We loved cycling to the Coast of Porto Novo. It was only 5 kms along the river. Very nice tour. Cycling to Santa Cruz was more challenging because of the hills. All little distances (supermarket, restaurants,...) we did by bike."

Appreciation note from Elodie Guitton and Pierric Drai - France (FR110417), March 2018:
"Isabel et Joao nous ont accueillis chaleureusement, comme des amis, vraiment sympathiques et aidants. La maison à Vimeiro est chouette et bien située. Nous avons bien profité des visites autour: villes, villages, châteaux, palais, monastères... ( Mafra, Lisbonne, la grotte Saint Antonio, Obidos, Ericeira, Tomar, Sintra......et je dois en oublier plein!!!)"

Appreciation note from Peter & Trine Sørensen - Denmark (DK110333), July 2012:
We have had such a nice and cosy time in your house, Vimeiro and surroundings. You really made us feel very much at home and very wellcome. Thanks for enjoying from your garden - lettuce, salat, onion, tomatoes and cucumbers. Thanks for inviting us for ice creams in Cascais and showing us around in both Vimeiro and Cascais. We have spent a lot of time at the beach - Porto Novo and the beach in Peniche. We have been to Coimbra, Lisboa and Óbidos. Also we have explored Vimeiro surroundings on bikes. We felt very welcome at the small local "supermarket".

Appreciation note from Francisco Cobo Melendo (ES2043), August 2011:
"Muchas gracias por todo. Hemos disfrutado mucho de este Intervac, el tiempo ha estado estupendo y hemos podido ir varios dias a la playa. Hay muchos sitios bonitos cerca de la casa, asi que cada dia planeábamos un viajito. Nos ha gustado mucho Óbidos y las playas!
Hemos comido genial! Sopas, pescados, carnes, estaba siempre todo estupendo."

From the letter of Anne, Ludovic and Co (FR060361), August 2010
We thank you very much for your nice house! We spent there a wonderful time! We hope we'll come another time in a such beautiful country like Portugal. (my comment: thank you for the cake and beautiful draws)

Opinión de nuestros visitantes Aurora y Daniel (ES1509) semana santa. abril 2009:
Gustamos de vuestra compañía en nuestro primer encuentro, y en el ánimo de prorrogar dichos contactos, queremos mantener abierta la puerta de nuestra casa en a coruña, en recíproca actitud, que nos permita volver a vimeiro, a gozar del medio rural, de esa costa acantilada y fuerte, de esas playas con olas encantadoras, de esa tierra ondulada y fértil, de los relajados baños en las piscinas hoteleras y termales, de los paisajes encantadores, de la gastronomía exquisita (pescado salvaje, todos los días) y de la amabilidad de las gentes y de vosotros mismos. hemos conocido ciudades y lugares preciosos: leiria, marinha grande, batalha, nazaré, caldas da rainha, arelho, óbidos, peniche, santarem, lourinhá, praia de santa cruz, torres vedras, ericeira, mafra, etc., y queremos volver a vuestra medida casa, con, justamente, todo lo necesario para hacer posible a dos parejas, gozar de unas hermosas vacaciones: jardín con flores y fresas, barbacoa, y paisaje por fuera, y una deliciosa chimenea (casette) interior, que a diario permite el acondicionamiento de la casa y su entretenida compañía.

¡¡¡queremos volver!!!. y volver a intercambiar si así es vuestro deseo!

Opinion of our visitors Caroline and Hugo Bossan (FR080434) - March 2009:
"Our stay in Portugal has been wonderful, we have seen Batalha (my favorite place), Alcobaça, Óbidos, Peniche, Sintra (twice) and Lisboa of course, and Mafra as well. you are very lucky to live in a so beautifull country! We enjoy walking along the santa rita beach, and saw the next point of view on its left, just before santa cruz beach, and it's amazing how savage it can be. countryside is so peaceful and sweet, it's just a pleasure to take the car and drive along the roads beetween the fields, even if it's not ecologist."

Opinion of our visitors Mike and Mayumi Spenguel (ushi267) - September 2008:
"This weekend home is a good deal nicer than the full time homes of a very large part of the population. it's located in an agricultural area about ten minutes from numerous beautiful beaches and is in a village of about 1,500 people. Everyone I've met in vimeiro has been exceptionally friendly and helpful and a surprisingly large number get along well with english. Local trades people are quite friendly, even if they don't speak another language. Lourinhã is only about ten minutes away for major shopping items."
"The home itself is part of a small condominium complex of ten homes and comprises two stories with two bathrooms, a garage and a garden fully planted with flowers and vegetables. It is seven years old but appears to be of newer vintage. Very nice materials have been used in the construction and furnishing of the home including a beautiful marble stairway and fireplace, and tile floors are used throughout. Mayumi, who is a newshound, was especially pleased with the satellite tv. The furnishings show very nice taste and the decorations are more indicative of a regular home than of a weekend retreat. From the living room/salon there is a nice view over the garden to the hills beyond surmounted by an old windmill."

Opinion of first visitors - Fiona Mainstone (GB039098) - to our house (August 2008):
"your home is lovely and we especially enjoyed sitting in your garden in the early evening.    We had a really wonderful holiday.    
we ate fish  in a different restaurant each day. We didn't do as much sightseeing as we planned because we enjoyed sitting on the beaches and watching the waves much more than we expected: it was most seductive! 
We scrabbled for sardines to barbeque in peniche and enjoyed an ice cream from santinis in cascais.  we visited obidos several times, including a trip to the opera, went to the grutas near fatima and to Fátima itself and to the monastery at Alcobaça.   
we enjoyed the parties in Maceira.  dancing under the moon and stars with fairly lights and bunting is my idea of heaven:  i will think about it during the long winter nights here."
