Great views and plenty of space

Three couples visiting Porto. The house is nicely laid out for 3couples, the views and property are beautiful and we loved the character of the house. We did not know heat wasn’t included and we had to maintain fires in the fireplaces through the night. It is not walkable to shops and restaurants, the beds and bedding are old and worn and we only received one hand towel and one bath towel per person. Also note, you should be prepared to bring everything, soap, shampoo, toilet paper, etc

Fantastic Rustic Setting with Views of Surrounding Hills

This house was really unique for us for its rustic look and use of natural materials. The beds were comfortable, and there was so much space to relax including huge patio and cozy living room. It might be a bit out of the way from the main road, but it made it feel like a country escape. We had a great time.

Portugal hills

The location of this villa is ideal if you want to separate yourselves from crowds and drink in nature and peaceful views. An absolutely perfect setting to gather with friends or family and enjoy leisurely meals while overlooking a beautiful valley. I highly recommend this place and the host. The host is quick to communicate and was a gracious host the five days we were there. Unobtrusive and but helpful. If you get that chance to stay here, do! You won't regret it.

Great location. Large home suitable for families or friends. Well laid out property with views from each room. Very well stocked with everything you might need. Host went out of his way to ensure we found the property when we arrived late at night. Bed linen clean and comfortable, could do with an upgrade.

Fantastic!

This home hosted a large group of friends and family for a week. There were five adults and three young children and there was plenty of space and activities to keep us relaxed and happy during the week. The location of the house was also very convenient- about 30-40 minutes from Porto, Guimaraes, or the Duoro River. Álvaro is a wonderful host, providing excellent support and communication throughout our stay. Highly recommend. One of the few VRBOs I truly want to return to.

Beautiful property that would be fabulous in warmer weather

This is a fabulous property with the capacity to accommodate a large party and we had a most enjoyable stay. The views over the valley and the town were spectacular and the patio was a delightful place from which to enjoy a pre-dinner drink. We had the feeling that we were the first visitors for the season and unfortunately the weather was unseasonably cold and with so much stonework throughout the building and only two solid fuel heaters we ended up burning a lot of wood in order to stay warm. However once the house reached a reasonable temperature it was fine and we all enjoyed the experience. We have little doubt that later in the season with higher ambient temperatures, this would be a special place to stay.

Tranquil setting, well situated, warm welcome

The house, gardens, pool, views and amenities were spot-on for our two-day sojourn in the Douro. The owner, Álvaro, was very welcoming and extremely responsive (in fact proactive) when there was an issue with the electricity during a massive rolling storm. We took advantage of the pool, outdoor grill and the splendid patio. If you go to Amarante for the day I recommend taking the old road (N210) on the return to Marco de Canaveses alongside the Támega, GPS will suggest many other routes but this one is worth the extra 5 minutes or so.

A well designed house with a great view in a convenient location. Good base for exploring the Douro, Porto and further afield. Attentive hosting from Sr Velhote. Great plunge pool for cooling down on hot summer days. A lovely place for two families to share. Thank you.

Charmerende hus med flot udsigt

Vi havde et rigtig dejligt ophold i dette skønne og charmerende hus med en meget flot udsigt over dalen fra terrasse, stue og værelser. Vi var to voksne, to teenagere og to seniorer, og alt fungerede rigtigt fint for alle. Huset var godt udstyret med alt vi havde brug for, og der var pænt og rent. Der var rigtig god kommunikation med udlejer, som tog godt imod os, da vi ankom og sendte os godt afsted igen. Huset har en god beliggenhed ift. ture i området, bl.a. Porto, flotte borge og kirker samt Douro-dalen. Et hus som helt klart kan anbefales.
