Diana has created a lovely little space for a getaway, very tastefully decorated and with a great view of the Douro below! A thoughtful touch was the beach bag with towels and an umbrella. An absolute highlight was Tasquinha do Tio Miguel tapas restaurant - you can't stay here without popping into this awesome place with its mouth-watering traditional dishes and typical Portuguese hospitality. There are three beaches in the vicinity; the one on the opposite river bank has a ferry taxi you can catch from the Melres Marina and the other is only a few minutes drive away; we opted for the third, quieter Praia Fluvial da Moreira just past that. Please note that there is not really any place to park on the tiny cobblestone road that runs past the AirBnB- the tiny space that there is on the bend is best left for the locals to park in. Instead park on the less steep end of the road accessed from the edge of the town.
