My family, including grandmother and children, had an impeccable stay in Daniels house in Vilar de Pinheiro.
The interior of the house is simply awesome. All kitchen ammenities are modern and work flawlessly.
Basic supplies such as salt, sugar, coffee, tea, cleaning-liquids to do the dishes/ wash your clothes, as well as Towels and bed-linnen, are well stocked.
But then the garden. Unbelievable. There are vegetables in all sizes and forms, gorgeous flowers, little rabbits and a fluck of chicken with a cock.
Daniels uncle, "mister Ze (José)"; was incredibly kind. We received many lemons, crops of lettuce, onions, courgettes (eggplants), hands full of green peas. "Tudo biologico", as he proudly proclaims!
Ze gave his phone number in case anything was missing, he lives only 2 km away.
A disclaimer: it may have helped that I tried my best to speak as much Portuguese as I was able to. (Haven't fled to english.)
When using Porto's Metro, do not choose "Lidador" station (as it is a steeper and more difficult walk to the house) but choose "Vilar de Pinheiro" instead.
If you feel like going out, don't miss bakery and Pastelaria "Pingo de Mel", just a couple of 100 m away, in the towncenter of V Pinheiro: The young couple who runs the place together, is super friendly and helpful. Also, their "bolos" (Portuguese pastry) are delicious.
Staying in Portugals countryside is just... peaceful and enchanting. Simply surrounded by the easygoing Portuguese themselves.
