Francisco and Isobel are truly wonderful hosts, nothing was too much trouble.
Their holiday home has been built and finished to a very high standard but still has a homely feel to it. Things like the Induction hob, the best Espresso maker (with plenty of coffee supplied), quiet air conditioning in all the bedrooms which was perfect and good wifi that was available in all parts of the house, we streamed movies without any problem. Every day Isobel arranged for fresh rolls to be be delivered to the house all of which just added to the enjoyment of our stay.
The outside space is more than ample with a BBQ (supplied with charcoal and lighters), a variety of seating areas (we loved the giant bean bag, soooooo comfortable) and a good sized swimming pool. It is a great holiday retreat and we would throughly recommend it.
There are some great local restaurants at the nearby beaches and at extremely good prices, recommend the Sea Bass at the Filipe De Angeiras restaurant in Lavra, Matosinhos.
One nice touch was a range of photos in the hallway of some local areas such as the National Park or places of interest in Porto all with their GPS coordinates on each photo, very useful. The house is close to the main roads with Porto only around 15 mins away but be aware of the traffic in the city!
