Summer retreat in Portugal by Pequenina Rodrigues

I'm not gonna lie, I had second thoughts about whether I should post about this place or not. This summer hideout is designed by Pequenina Rodrigues and located in Vale da Raposa in Portugal. But most probably you already know about that because these photos are all around the web. And, I mean everywhere, flooding pinterest, tumblr, blogs and magazines. I even have posted some photos of it some months ago. 

I finally decided to give it a go as it actually is too good not to and I really wanted to keep an archive of this heaven retreat in my blog. It's idyllic summer vibe can't be unnoticed and one can't get enough of it (at least I can't), especially at the beginning of the summer season.

How can you not dream of having a long, delicious meal outdoors, after an invigorating morning swim? I love the straw roof and the white pergolas, combined with the bold blues on the windows and decor.

The interior design has strong ethnic influences, brimming with vintage finds, reclaimed furniture and handmade objects.

Cabinet doors are made of bamboo sticks and the red chair adds an eclectic twist to the room.

P.s. I'm in love with this house too.

    1. Hi,
      I don't think it is for rent. As I can read it is the home of Pequenina Rodrigues. Would be nice though to spend a few days there, right? ;)
