Cottage vacation rentals in Porto District

Wonderful stay. It's the ideal place for both a stadia and a family stay. The hosts have always been very attentive and responsive. We adored and intend to return.

Silvio is gracious and friendly and the garden is beautiful. He left us fresh eggs one morning and we loved the hot tub. Definitely recommend Silvio’s place.

The place was very clean and cozy. All as described. Very good service and well received.

Quiet quiet space good for a few days, as for the host André always very accessible. Experience to repeat again

Wonderful stay here for 5 days. Helena was quick and responsive throughout. When I arrived, I met Paula, Sofia, Martinho and Francisco who welcomed and showed me the house and area. So generous to offer me a bottle of wine, water, biscuits on my arrival. The house is cozy and peaceful with a view of the farm where the sheep roam during the day. Comfortable bed, linen and beautiful antique decor to keep with the theme. Kitchen has a small fridge, kettle, microwave and stove. Beautiful spaces to walk and rest under fruit trees, 2 swimming pools in a peaceful natural setting. Even my cat, Samson enjoyed it. For company, we also had a cute friendly dog, Nina. It is a short drive to centre of Fafe, a lovely town with charming architecture. Helena provided useful recommendations on what to do and where to go. Guimaraes is a beautiful place, only 20 minutes from the house. All in all, a great stay and I'm happy to revisit one day again. Thanks for a great stay!

The home is a great place to just get away from it all and relax. The grounds are peaceful with lots of fruit trees. If you like nature you will love it.

Great house, great hosting with even a free meal. Nuno and his mom are super nice. I would highly recommend it!

Great cozy house! Feels like home because has so many little things. One can feel falily history there

We were delighted with our stay. The house was clean, the view of the Douro Valley is simply fantastic, from the veranda, from the pool, from the pergola facing the kitchen… heavenly. Some neighbors, but the vegetation isolates well, the garden is large. When the vegetation has grown a little at the end of the pool, it will be really perfect!

A very quiet and beautiful place, suitable if you're traveling with pets, in addition to offering a very good and varied breakfast. Manuel is a very attentive person. I would definitely stay here again.

We spent incredible days at Grandpa's house. We were greeted by Ana, who awaited us with a warm coffee, the fireplace heating the room, and told us the story of the house which makes the experience even more complete. Comfortable beds, quality bed and bath linen, all very clean and organized and very well-equipped kitchen. All rooms have been very well thought out both to live together moments and the privacy of the rooms, which are isolated from the common area. The view is breathtaking and the sunset framed through the windows, it looks more like a canvas in the decoration of the room. We already anticipate a return in the summer to enjoy the pool. Super rocomendo live this experience.

What a great home! Pedro was a very responsive host. We didn’t use the pool because of the weather but it was clean and had a great view. Having a peaceful location was our goal and it fit perfectly.

The house is very clean and beautiful but we thought the hosts were the best part of our stay. We have heard a lot about the area and history of the area. They are very nice and welcoming. The pool is beautiful too! I can't think of anything negative at all. Perfect!

We stayed at Pedro's house for ten days with our two sons, 8 and 10 years old. It was very nice there, the children could splash in the pool, we cooked a lot, grilled and read the terrace with hammock and the huge fantastic garden. With the canoe you could go directly from the garden to the river. Nazarè, who took care of the garden every day, told us a lot about the area and gifted us with lemons and vegetables from her own garden. We made excursions through the vineyards and also day trips to Porto and Amarante. Thank you Pedro and Nazarè for the beautiful and relaxing time!

We had a great time at Lucia's place. The place is peaceful, really very nice and very well maintained. The house is cute, very clean and well-equipped. It is in the countryside (the terrace is surrounded by agapanthus) and a stone's throw from a swimming pool (there are two). Communication with Lucia was very easy. She and her colleagues were very responsive when we needed them. We highly recommend this property!

Incredible house, amazing grounds, very close to numerous places of interest, but also a haven to just spend time in, swim, etc. Very helpful and welcoming hosts.

We chose Carmens house because we are a tired family who wanted peace and quiet without noise and other people. Carmens house in fairly isolated and set in huge grounds on what felt like mountain sides with beautiful views down the valley. There’s so much space/land to explore and you get this sense of rural perfection. The pool is what drew us there and did not disappoint - it’s huge, deep and private. We stayed 8 days and barely left the pool. We went to Paredes (15 min drive) each morning to do a food shop in Lidl (avoid awful local super markets) and stock up on healthy food. We bbq on an old school bbq as the sun slowly set and ate on the private patio in dappled sunshine. The dogs are lovely and my kids adored them. Inside is traditional (if a little old) but clean, spacious and comfy. Beds clean if a little small for two tall adults (140cm) and a little hard. Carmen is an amazing host and helped us loads - but she’s not intrusive. We are already planning to return! We loved it!

We had the most wonderful stay in Maria's beautiful house. We felt like we had our own stately home & botanical gardens! So peaceful, and the pool & garden was stunning. An easy walk to the beach and local restaurants, and an easy metro journey to central Porto. Maria was the perfect host, always responsive & even gave us a lift from the metro! Muito obrigada Maria! Thoroughly recommend.
