What a fantastic place! Beautiful property with just the right mix off traditional and new. It's perfectly located to explore the Arouca Geopark with its amazing scenery and walks, and less than an hour by car from Porto. We had a lovely week, relaxing in and around the pool. It's a very rural location, although there's a bar/shop just down the road, and the locals were really friendly and welcoming. Maria Elisabete contacted us during our stay to check that everything was to our liking (it was!) and gave some good recommendations of places to visit, eat and shop. The house is stylish, very clean and a real home-from-home. If you are looking for a relaxing break in the green Northern Portugese countryside, this is the perfect place. We would most certainly visit again, and we thoroughly recommend Maria Elisabete's property. What a great stay!
