Rural house is a peaceful and calm place located within easy reach of Matosinhos beach. It has been beautifully designed and feels very private. The swimming pool is also a lovely feature - although in June it is a little cold! - and, although nominally shared, we basically had that to ourselves during our (one month) stay. There isn't much around but a fantastic little shop that also does coffee and pastries is close by and that sells essentials and great fresh fruit. We used ubers/taxis to get around and these were easy to obtain: 5-10 minutes to the beach and 15-20 minutes into the city. There is a metro station but this is about 20 minutes walk away and that is a bit more of a challenge. I believe most people who stay rent a car but we found ubers to be great with minimum hassle. The owner, Carla, is very friendly and everything is provided for a great stay. If you are thinking about a longer stay in the Porto area then would highly recommend. We had a small child so thought the pool and quick access to the beach at Matosinhos was ideal.
