What can I say, this was one of those rare finds that don't come along too often. My wife found this via AirB'n'B when we needed to escape the madness of Carnival in Rio and to be honest, the photos on AirB'n'B don't quite do it justice (Feb 2017). The owners Alexandre and Elen developed this gem of a property gradually, starting with the main house, a traditional if rather grand looking farm house that contains a healthy mix of old and new, from antiques, via a mix of 40s, 50s and 60s furniture to contemporary art. They then expanded into bespoke quest accomodation, where they struck a decidedly more modern architectural chord, using modern materials and techniques, from shipping containers, via scaffolding and CLT (cross-laminated timber) to steel frame perched on the steep slopes of the property (giving stunning views). We stayed in one of the two container houses, each consisting of two former shipping containers linked together into a very pleasant two volume abode (comfortable double bed and bathroom in one container, kitchen and sitting room/spare bed in the other). We had booked for one night and ended up staying an extra night, so well put up and welcome we felt. The scaffolding house sounds a bit mad (brain child of Alexandre's "laboratory") but actually works quite well. Then there are the two top of the range houses using more traditional steel frame and layout, with jacuzzi in one case and free standing bathtub in the other, both with fully equipped open plan kitchens. Breakfast and dinner (the latter on request) take place in the main house which has a big kitchen where either Elen or Alexandre cook a lovely meal for guests that want to join in. It ended up feeling more like staying with friends than in a pousada. We made excursions into Tiradentes and Sao Joao del Rey and did a big circular walk of 5 hours (can be done in 3) via Estrada Parque direct from the property. Loved it all. We will surely be back.
