The view from Joao house was breathtaking. The pool the garden and the football field made an amazing frame for our holidays. The house is rustic, yet cozy , the mattresses were comfortable and had new clean sheets and pillows. The main road is nearby but the noise never disturbed us during our sleep. We stayed for more than two weeks to rest with two very young children and the house was the perfect location for that. Plenty to visit around, not only [Porto, but also the Douro region with its vineyards and towns . Have recommended it to all friends and family
