Very peaceful, Beautiful old house
We stayed for 3 nights. Beautiful old house, view of water below was so lovely. Enjoyed the pool but it was a little late in the year so it was just a little cold for us at our age. We still did get into it twice. Kitchen had all the pots and utensils we needed. We would love to stay here again when in Portugal.

Beautiful Stone House and Property
Our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children aged 9&12) absolutely loved this 150 year old stone house! The location was beautiful, quiet and secure. Check-in and communication with the property owners over WhatsApp was easy and efficient. Miguel and his father Alexandre were incredibly kind and hospitable. The house was lovely and had an amazing infinity pool with a gorgeous view of the Tâmega river. We really enjoyed using the kayak, SUP boards and relaxing in the hammocks. The house and property were well maintained and tranquil. We could not have chosen a better place to stay - my kids are still raving about it! We will definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Douro Valley
We had a wonderful and relaxing stay at this home in Douro Valley. This is one of the nicest and most unique places we’ve ever stayed. Miguel was so kind and left Port, flowers and treats for us! The property is beautiful with flowers and fruit trees everywhere. We enjoyed use of the kayak and private pool - view is stunning. The stone walls throughout the house add to the charm. Would stay again!

Paradise in the valley
We spent 5 weeks in Portugal, touring much of the countryside, and this homestay was our absolute favourite, hands-down. Perched on the riverside, this fantastic stone house and infinity pool had all the amenities that you need for an extended stay. The hosts, Miguel and Alexandre were very friendly and excellent communicators. We took the local train to Porto for a day (60 minutes each way, ran every hour) and could not wait to get back to our home in the valley! This property is a true countryside experience, has it all, including paddleboards and a three-person kayak. We highly recommend this property and will be back for an extended visit next time. Thanks M+A!

Perfect retreat
We really loved this place. Felt like a proper family home and in the most beautiful and peaceful of surroundings . So many nice touches, a pot of fresh herbs outside the kitchen door, a great barbecue, outside lights, bottle of port and hooks everywhere for wet towels. Miguel and his dad were right there to meet us and show us the way -don’t think we would have found it! We were a bit unlucky with the weather but that just meant we visited a few more places. We swam in the rain . Would recommend to anyone but think active teenagers would particularly enjoy it. Thank you, thank you

Relaxing and peaceful getaway
Very helpful hosts who communicated with us before, during and after our holiday. The villa was as described and we had a wonderful 2 week stay. The pool was the highlight for me and I spent many hours enjoying a wonderful swim with breathtaking views of the river Tamega. We made use of the kayak but didn't use the paddleboards. The kayak was really good fun. Would highly recommend.

Stunning garden, view and pool
Beautiful property, immaculately clean, extremely well equipped, very friendly and helpful owners. Unfortunately this time of year (July) use of the kayak and paddle boards risky as there is a blue-green algae problem as that section of the river Tamega is very warm and slow and it can be very toxic. Nothing the owners can do about this but aside from that minor disappointment we were delighted with our stay and would like to go again earlier in the year.

Idyllic holiday house
This property is set in beautiful lush grounds with a wonderful view across the river. If you are looking for a quiet holiday in lovely surroundings with your own private pool , big enough to swim comfortably in, then this is ideal. The house is comfortable, spotlessly clean with everything you need . Added bonus of paddle boards and kayak are a great addition and there are lots of lovely shaded area to sit when sun gets too hot!. The hosts Miquel and Alexandre are fantastic. Alexandre was there to show us to the property still with a courteous welcome even though we ended up arriving at unsociable time of 2:30 am due to a delayed flight. Both were at the end of the phone while i kept giving a later and later arrival time. Communication from them is excellent and they are happy to answer any questions . This property definitely lives up to its description and more and I would highly recommend it.

We could not have dreamed of a better location or a more well appointed property. Recommended if you're looking to get away from it all and relax in lush surroundings.

A fabulous property in a beautiful location
Where do we start. The property was set in the most stunning location. There was peace and tranquility in abundance. Our teenagers loved the use of the pool and the extensive grounds (the hammocks got a lot of use). The kayaks and paddle boards were amazing and we used these several times during our stay. Entry and exit into the river was a little tricky, but worth the effort. The property had a rustic charm, it was comfortable and clean. The wifi was excellent (a teenager's must). The addition of an outside shower room was great. The kitchen missed a cooker, but this did not hinder us, it meant we ate out more enjoying the delicious local food. Alexandre and Miguel were helpful throughout. We have certainly fallen in love with North Portugal, its towns, people, food and this property and hope to return in the future.
