“(…) at the Casa da Eira the garden is a surprise as soon as you arrive, because of the open space of the lawn, the isolated corners, stone tables, porches and trellised vines that are side by side with granaries (…)”

“The Casa da Eira was a refurbishing project of some village houses outlined by the architect Siza Vieira. Several decades afterwards it receives whoever wants to turn up.”

“(…) Another of the charms of this house is precisely this. It looks isolated. There are birds, you don’t hear any cars or the neighbours, but you only have to leave the village in order to find the lively agitation of Summer that pervades the fashionable beaches. And although a nice quiet afternoon is good (…) sometimes you wish for a lively beach.”

“If this afternoon the garden, the conversation and dinner under the hazel tree are enough, tomorrow you will have the beach and the bustling of people of the same age who go through the night at the seafront.”
