A very peaceful and beautiful place that is a retreat from the hurried pace. Very close to Porto, which makes it a convenient location. This is a perfect place for a Honeymoon Hideaway, a Family trip with small children and a retreat for friends. We loved being next to the small river and hearing the water rushing. The garden area was absolutely stunning and we are sorry we didn't get a chance to use the fire pit because of rain. However, we had a warm fire in the cottage and used the sauna twice. Our host had prepared so many little touches with breakfast ready in the fridge and maps of trails to go on hikes right at our doorstep. If you are looking for a long relaxing break and need to get away from it, you would be hard-pressed to find a better location. We were only here two days and felt that he had a much longer break. We have spent a lot of time in Bali and it feels like a Balinese garden hideaway. Believe me you will not be disappointed in this beautiful location and quaint and clean modernized cottage.
