A well located apartment that offers plenty of amenity and space, and Miguel is an excellent host and greeted us warmly. The apartment is bright and close to services, and there is a good shop at the bottom of the hill.
We enjoyed basing ourselves in the apartment, but also explored the many local beaches, with Ribeira and Foz do Lizandro the best (in our opinion!). We also spent a lot of time sufing and skating, and the Boardriders skatepark is fantastic, and the surf centre at Ribeira brilliant too - wish we had these facilities in Ireland!
Ericeira town is lovely and well worth visiting, we drove over to Mafra one day,and it really wasn't worth the visit so we just came back. There isn't really anywhere in Ericeira for breakfast as such - you will need to make your own, but you should definitely try the pastries and coffee mid morning.
Our favourite restaurant experience was Ti Matilde on the sea front and not far from the apartment, and it has a lovely little outside terrace for eating en plein air, as long as it is not too cold! It was extremely cold when we were there, but they have blankets, which was wonderful.
For some visitors, you will need to be aware of the heights of railings and barriers for very small children as they are not very safe - this is just an issue in many European properties as the same building codes are not adhered to. The railing in the stairwell needs particular care.
Thank you Miguel for looking after us.
