Great, large and quiet property and very attentive owner
The property is very large and complete and at a great location to explore the north of Portugal, yet only 30 minutes from the airport. The views from the property are very beautiful. Antonio (the owner) was very attentive and answered any of our questions very promptly. We found all the local people very friendly and helpful. All restaurants and cafes served excellent food.

Незабываемо! Замечательно!
Дом в окружении виноградника, эвкалиптовой рощи и фруктовых деревьев. С любовью и хорошим вкусом отреставрированный, продуманный до деталей интерьер. Есть все необходимое и даже больше. Можно прекрасно уединиться и интересно проводить время, хоть вдвоем, хоть с компанией... И климат в этом районе Португалии в сентябре гораздо мягче, чем непосредственно у океана, без ветра и туманов. Все понравилось. Спасибо!
