We had two wonderful weeks in a beautiful Villa with an amazing citrus-tree and maracujar garden, palm-trees, flowers ,ponds and very big old trees.
It feels like a botanical park with a characteristic Villa as a center .
We would have loved to use the large pool but the weather was too cool for this time of the year.
We just loved the character of Quinta do Gestal and felt very welcome from Rosa and Alvaro which made us feel like family from the first minutes we met.
They are so warm hearted and made us feel secure and safe.
Also they showed us where to eat the biggest and best meals we ever saw, made us experience to taste Port wine in the center of Porto or they went shopping with us on the local market, which us girls enjoyed very much.
We tasted Rosas fantastic cakes ( my favourite was nut and Apple cake) in the morning with freshly pressed orange juice and a good breakfast.
From Quinta do Gestal you reach all places in Porto either by car within a few minutes or by metro.
Porto is one of the most beautiful cities we have seen , full of things and places to explore.
Now we are back home we miss this little paradise and especially Rosa and Alvaro. Once again thank you for an outstanding care it was a pleasure being your guests.
Thank you for a wonderful holiday which will stay in our memories, we will see each other again!
