Loved by guests
"The place is amazing, quite big, the view is beautiful, the breakfast was really nice, within walking distance of World of Wine (WOW Porto)."
"Loved having the options of having a breakfast evening meal and a drink at the bar after a day of touring around."
"Even though it looks on a map like a ways out from Porto, it is not a long ride - about a €5 ride-share."
