Izumi made us very welcome on our arrival and throughout our stay. A big attraction is the secluded garden which is lovely to sit in at the end of a day! There are great views to be had on nearby walks and from the various castles and gardens which are well worth a visit. We did a return tram trip to Praia Das Macas which was great fun. Spent a couple of hours for quick explore and a meal. Would strongly recommend Izumi's lovely home for a great stay!
