We spent a lovely relaxing week at Luis's villa. The outdoor area is really spacious and lovely to sit in and enjoy the views. The pool was fantastic and everything was very clean. There is a small farm at the bottom of the garden. You do require a car to get to the villa, but the area is lovely with lots of nice wild swimming pools and scenery. Arouca is a nice town with local markets and a good supply of supermarkets and restaurants. There is also a very nice restaurant just down the hill from the villa, near the river. Luis was really helpful and responsive. I will also miss the farm cats who I bonded with during the week.
