Grande maison de campagne de luxe. Piscine partagée. Entièrement accessible en fauteuil roulant

Vale da Cegonha offers country living of the highest standards in 2 beautifully presented country houses.
The houses are adjoining, yet totally self contained. Each has its own front door and private barbeque terrace.
There is also a large swimming pool with both a sun terrace and shady pergola beside, which is shared between all guests. There is ample room around the pool area for all guests to enjoy their own space. The pool itself measures 10x5 metres and is 1.2m at the shallow end and 2m at the deep end.
Both of the houses and all the terraces enjoy spectacular uninterrupted views across the valley toward the distant hills.

Casa Aguia has a spacious lounge with a leather lounge suite. There is also a TV/DVD player and satellite TV. The kitchen/diner has a dining table and seating for up to 6 guests and the kitchen area is fully fitted and has solid wood units with granite worktops. It includes a hob, oven, microwave, fridge freezer, toaster and electric hand blender.
A further dining table and chairs is outside on the barbeque terrace.
Bedroom 1 has a double bed and a single bed and a full bathroom ensuite which includes a corner bath with shower over plus a washbasin, WC and bidet.
Bedroom 2 (wheelchair accessible) has zip and link beds which can be made up as either a large double or 2 singles, whichever you would prefer. A small child's bed or cot can be added to this bedroom.
This bedroom also has a spacious 'wetroom' style shower room ensuite, which includes an adjustable height shower, washbasin and WC. There are grabrails within the shower area and beside the WC as well as a 1m space beside the WC and an open space beneath the washbasin.
What makes Casa Aguia so special is that when we designed it we wanted to ensure that it was not only spacious and elegant, but that it was also wheelchair friendly. To this end subtle design features were included - wider doorways, level thresholds and no steps. There are also 1.5m turning circles in all living areas as well as bedroom 2.
The kitchen is also wheelchair friendly as it includes an extra lowered work surface and hob both with spaces beneath plus a further space beneath the sink. Most crockery, cutlery and cooking utensils are kept in large pull out drawers with space to the side. The oven is set at 50cm from the floor.
We can either provide or hire a number of other mobility aids if required - Electric care beds, electric hoists and wheelchairs as well as a pool hoist. Please advise us of your requirements.
All areas around both the house and the pool terraces are fully wheelchair accessible.
Parking is available immediately in front of the house and there is also a shaded parking area is available.

COVID-19 Statement of safety precautions at Vale da Cegonha.
Vale da Cegonha offers 2 letting houses, Casa Aguia and Casa Coruja.
Each house is entirely separate. Each house has its own entrance door at the front of the property and each house has its own private barbeque terrace at the rear of the property. The front doors are approximately 10 metres apart.
Each house will be thoroughly cleaned as normal and then disinfected before new guests arrive. This includes all areas such as door handles, light switches, TV remotes, cupboard and drawer handles, as well as microwave and fridge door handles and all chair backs.

The pool and surrounding pool terraces are shared.
Under normal circumstances, clients can chose where they wish to sit.
However, due to the situation with COVID-19, we have introduced strict precautions to ensure that guests remain safe at all times.
There are 2 terraces beside the pool, a sun terrace with loungers and a shaded terrace with tables and chairs.
Each terrace is now strictly divided, such that a safe distance of 2 metres is maintained between guests from each house, at all times.

Safety of the pool and the pool water.

The water is filtered constantly, throughout the day. The water is also treated with chlorine at all times. The purpose of this is to ensure that the water remains clear but also to ensure that the water remains disinfected and safe for swimming, at all times. Normally, our pool has approximately 20% of the amount of chlorine that is used in public pools. This is sufficient to keep the water clean and safe for swimming. However, we have increased this to 40% for the moment, to reassure guests that the water is completely disinfected and that it is safe to swim.

If you have any concerns and would like to ask any further questions, please do so.
It is most important to us that all of our guests feel safe and secure here at Vale da Cegonha.
