Casa do Azevim | Nature | Tranquility | Peneda-Gerês National Park

Description

Casa do Azevim is located in the hamlet of Bouça dos Homens, belonging to the hamlets of Peneda and Beleiral, in the parish of Gavieira, in the municipality of Arcos de Valdevez.
Bouça dos Homens is a small village with an imposing and breathtaking landscape. At an altitude of 1,070 metres, it lies on the edge of the Peneda Gerês National Park.
It is surrounded by five mountain peaks: to the south is Alto da Pedrada (1,416 metres above sea level), to the south-east is Cume da Peneda/Castelo do Pedrinho (1,374 metres above sea level), to the north is Alto da Costa/Fojo (1,290 metres above sea level), to the west is Outeiro Alvo (1,314 metres above sea level) and to the south-east is Penameda (1,268 metres above sea level).
With its unrivalled beauty, where the sounds of nature create a symphony that invites us to listen and relax, Casa do Azevim awakens well-being in all those who appreciate peace and quiet and encourages those who enjoy new challenges to embark on exciting mountain adventures.
There is no shortage of walking routes and trails in this area, with varying degrees of difficulty, which allow hiking, trails, mountain biking and other mountaineering-related sports to guide our emotions.
The great snowfalls in winter, the unique landscapes and the tasty gastronomy characterise this place as a little paradise worth visiting and discovering!

Here you can rest in the cosiness of a small Open Space house, with a bedroom with a double bed and a living room with a double sofa bed. The maximum capacity is 4 people.

The house has a rustic look, but guarantees the necessary modern comforts.

The view, at the foot of the Serra da Peneda, is breathtaking. It's like opening the window to the purest natural experience, where you live in full communion with its fauna and flora: animals such as the garrano horse or the cachena and pisca cows go up and down the mountain, getting to know every nook and cranny at the stride of a footprint.

You're very welcome here!

Staying at Casa do Azevim feels like you take a trip back in time. It was magical and peaceful. The outdoor space was everything from the hammock to the fireplace. The place is very thoughtfully decorated, and you have everything at the place that you need. Just make sure to stop at the grocery store before you trek up the mountain. 10/10 would stay again!

If you want to relax in a region far away from the city noises, this is the place to be! The tiny house in Bouça dos Homens is the last house in tiny village and looks over the village and surroundings. The only noise you will experience is that of a bell of a Cachena cow. What a peaceful way to wake up! As I am a nature photographer my wife and me did a lot of hiking. I can only say wauw!!! Sofia is a lovely hostess with a hart for her visitors, the welcome was huge. Thank you Sofia!!! See you! Siegfried en Pia

Thankyou for our short stay. We enjoyed the house and the amazing location. Perfect for those who enjoy tranquility in nature, aswell as a vigorous walk in the mountains. We loved it all, including the village dogs and cats. We will return. Obrigada!

Foram dias maravilhosos, tudo perfeito casa, vistas, clima e sem contar a neve que deixou a paisagem ainda mais bonita. Grato pela recepção.

É certo que estradas difíceis levam a lindos destinos! Assim é com a casa do Azevim, depois de estradas sinuosas por portentosas montanhas, eis que nos espera uma casa saída de um conto de fadas, na qual se sente o carinho de quem a cuida, tudo nela nos acolhe. Ali, voltamos à Natureza e ao seu encanto.

Uma casinha super acolhedora onde cada recanto é uma descoberta. Segunda vez aqui e sabe sempre a tão pouco.
Silvia Mariana 27/11/2023
Apesar de não sermos recebidos pessoalmente (pela tardia chegada) fomos recebidos com muito amor. Em todos os pormenores da casa, na preocupação pelas mensagens, nas oferendas, pelos amigos peludos e pela natureza. Adoramos e iremos voltar... Fomos muito felizes. A aplicação fornecida é fantástica que no dá muitas dicas onde visitar, trilhos, onde comer... Tudo fantástico a começar no momento da reserva. Aconselho a qualquer um a marcar na casa do Azevim, não se vai arrepender mesmo! Obrigada por todo carinho e atenção Sofia. Abraço apertado. Sílvia e Roberto

Uma casa bem localizada e muito agradável. A Sofia é atenta aos pequenos detalhes que fazem a diferença à chegada e durante toda a estadia. A calma e o silêncio da natureza levam-nos a viajar no tempo e nos pensamentos. Sentimo-nos em nossa casa. Muito contente pela visita e que será para repetir certamente. Muitos parabéns e bem-haja!
