    1.- The “Moinho” / The windmill:

    Who can resist to the enchantment of lying down under the gears of an 1855 mill? Moinho offers a unique opportunity to travel back in time: 150 years, roughly. It was used to produce flour and has been remodeled to offer a unique experience, while keeping the vast majority of the inner machinery used in flour making. The master bedroom is in the top part, then there’s a mezzanine, at ground-level there’s the living room, kitchenette, table and chairs. Bathroom dug in the rock with natural light. The natural light is got through fanlights open in the ceiling. You have at your disposal a large shower in semi-circular shape, hair dryer as well as a towel-heater. The occupants of the mill have at a short distance and into exclusive, access to a barbecue with veranda.  The barbecue is equipped with a worktop and a sink in marble as well as a coal barbecue.  All these, while you enjoy the stunning sights, sitting around a stone used long ago in the grinding work of the mill. Appliances: glass cooktop, music (USB, MP3, CD, radio), microwave oven with grill, kettle, toaster, capsules coffee machine and fridge with small freezer. Air conditioning / heat pump.
