Great Property

Sympathetically restored 3 storey traditional building. On a very narrow & steeply sloping residential street, a car is a must (parking available nearby), although there is a lovely stroll down to the river beach. Metro station into Porto or drive to the coast both about 20 minutes away. Lovely hosts whi live next door. Highly recommended. vailable at the top of the

Charmante Wohnung von netten Vermietern

Wir haben uns dort sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Wohnung ist liebevoll eingerichtet, die Lage ist perfekt für Ausflüge nach Porto und Umgebung. Die Küche hatte alles, was wir benötigten. Danke für die selbstgemachte Marmelade :)

Two weeks and loved the soft guitar music!

The owners were very friendly and very helpful. We absolutely loved the beautiful soft guitar music played by the owner almost every early evening! What a bonus! The townhouse has been very tastefully and thoughtfully decorated, keeping in line with the age of the house, including the furniture. There was ample dishes, utensils, bedding and towels. This house is the middle of a three-house building and is very suitable for an active, healthy couple. If you are considering bringing children or mobility challenged people please understand that it is located on a steep narrow street with parking approximately 50 meters away on the lower side and approximately 70 meters on the upper side. The beach is approximately 100 meters down a steep hill. Please note that the owners say it has a lanai access and this is very true, but there is no back garden/yard access. The yard on one side belongs to whoever rented that house and the other backyard/garden is the owners'. We thank the Pedro and Teresa for their thoughtfulness and a lovely time!
