Lovely stay for a group of girls enjoying a long weekend in Porto
The property was lovely, and clean. The host was very responsive both in the lead up to the trip, and throughout our stay - she couldn’t have done more for us.

Absolutely perfect
We loved everything about our stay. Licína was so accommodating and welcoming - she responded to all of my messages on the run up to our stay, and was extremely helpful with my requests about booking taxis in advance. She was also very flexible when it came to discussing different arrival times for members of our group. Her partner was very welcoming at check-in and took his time showing us around the property and answering all our questions. He then offered us a lift to the local supermarket when he spotted us setting off to walk there, which was really kind of him! The house is absolutely beautiful, I would say that the photos don't fully do it justice - it has stunning views of the local village which I hadn't realised from the online listing. The pool area and garden are all lovely. All the rooms are very comfortable and it is full of beautiful old furniture which gives it so much character. The water pressure and temperature was really good, which I was impressed by given we had 10 adults staying at once. The kitchen was well-equipped for hosting - we cooked on the first night and had everything we needed. We didn't use public transport from the property but calling Ubers into the centre of Porto was very easy. I would really recommend staying at this lovely property if you are a large group looking to visit Porto but also have some time and space to relax out of the hustle and bustle of the city centre. Thank you Licina and team!

Lovely hosts, well kept house
Licinia and her husband were wonderful hosts, easy to communicate with and resolving any issues promptly. The pool.ans outdoor area was great though the weather was bad during our stay so we didn't get to use it.. easy drive to Porto too! The only thing we found was the listing says spa pool and fitness centre which must be a mistake as there is not either of those available a this house.

FANTASTICO
Fátima es una anfitriona extraordinaria, atenta y simpática. La casa es grande y tiene de todo. El entorno es un lujo...solo hemos estado un fin de semana y no da tiempo para todo. Recomiendo que se dispongan de más días para disfrutar también de la casa. Merece la pena.

Charmant séjour
Une maison charmante avec un exterieur sublime. Une hote de très grande qualité et disponibilité. Une cuisine équipée. Des chambres grandes avec des lits confortables. Une piscine et un jardin où il fait bon y passer du temps. On regrettera qu'il n'y ait qu'une seule salle de bains.
