Magic! Such a unique stay highly recommend!
Felt like home first off, Aida was so welcoming and kind!
*A car is not an absolute must (but it did make it handy), walking distance to the train station is approximately 3km.
*Aida has train passes that you just need to reload at the station (make sure you validate the card before you get on the train. There's a little stand next to the ticket machine)
*There's a Lidl 2km from the house, also the Continente 4.5km, has a bigger selection.
*Don't let the drive to the house put you off, it's not so bad. Head through a small neighbourhood and then the pavement ends and it's dirt with a few big rocks for approximately 200 meters.
*Parking is secure, with a locking gate. Area feels very safe, last house on the road. Also there is a security system in the house.
*There are 3 buildings in the property, the main house, a reading and yoga hut, also has a bed. And the Sauna hut.
*Big yard, that we didn't get to utilise, due to rain, but can see it would be amazing in summer.
*Lots of walking trails right from the house.
*Inside is so comfortable and cosy, great fireplace and underfloor heating.
*Kitchen is well stocked. Mind the oven, it gets very hot!
*WiFi worked perfectly
*Bed was very comfortable!
It was a pleasure to stay here, nice to be out of Porto, but be able to be downtown Porto in 30 min via train. Do not hesitate to book this dreamy place!
