Outstanding villa at large reservoir
|
Casa de Fundevila is situated on the edge of the village of Pandozes, its grounds bordering on the reservoir of Caniçada. Along a sandy path (about 150 metres) you walk down to a small private beach, where you can swim, laze away the day or take a canoe onto the lake. The villa is a marvellous combination of old and modern. The original granite part forms a surprising contrast with the glass façade and the stairwell in the centre. The whole offers ample space ands lots of comfort for 8 people. Beneath the house is a large garden with the pool and adjoining patio. Halfway there is a smaller, shady patio that is very pleasant for outdoor meals or enjoying a long summer evening. On the premises there is a second house where the owners’ brother lives. The guests in the small apartment he lets out can also use the garden, pool and beach. The lake - 700 hectares - offers plenty of opportunities for watersports; you can hire canoes, jet ski's and pedalo's, and you can learn how to waterski. Not far from Pandozes, at the “crossroads” of the reservoir, starts the national park Peneda-Gerês. You can find an information centre in the spa of Caldas do Gerês, where they provide information on flora and fauna of the park, archeological finds (among which the roman road that once lead from the city of Braga to Rome), walking routes, etc. In the village of Parada de Bouro (2.5 km) are some shops, cafes and a restaurant. The best restaurant is about 6 km away, in the historic pousada of Sta. Maria do Bouro. The distance to Braga is ± 30 km. |
