Ideal place
We enjoyed the place nicely located between Porto and the high Douro Valley. Nice house and pool, very discret area and good view.

Bon séjour, mais....
La maison est tout à fait conforme aux photos, de la place, piscine très agréable.
Excellente relation avec l'hôte, Guest Ready, disponible et efficace.
Le gros point noir ce sont les aboiements des chiens du voisinage ! A n'importe quelle heure du jour et de la nuit ! Horrible et très stressant !

Relaxing time
Hemos pasado unos días muy tranquilos en la casa. La piscina, las vistas, la casa a la que no falta detalle, han contribuido a ello. Es de agradecer la limpieza en todo el recinto, tanto en el interior como en el exterior, la cocina con productos de primera necesidad (sal, azúcar, café, etc) Sin olvidar el detalle del vino y los dulces de la llegada a la casa.
La zona es verdaderamente bonita y hemos disfrutado de la playas fluviales y del entorno del río.
Muy recomendable

Dejligt stort hus
Det gik så godt med indtjekning, huset var fint og lækkert. Dog ingen lås på dørene til badeværelset og der er forholdsvis meget gøen fra nabo hunde. Men huset og poolen var så fint
