Only about an hour from Porto but feels like you are in another world. Situated close enough to explore
the Douro wine region or the Vine Verde wine region (we did both). However, we ended up staying at the
home, using the pool, and just having wine on the porch soaking in the views more than we anticipated.
The house manager Linda is an absolute delight. She was friendly, helpful, and a wonderful person. She
made a fantastic breakfast spread each morning and even helped with laundry. She was always willing
to help.
Nuno communicated extremely well throughout and was able to provide recommendations and help with
a minor questions. He also helped to set up a dinner with a private chef that was such a wonderful
experience. Highly recommend this option if staying at the home.
Overall, a huge thank you to Nuno & Linda for such a wonderful experience.
