Description from owner

Description

2 bedroom house available, with kitchen and 1 bathroom, for holiday rentals, in Avintes (near Porto), with garden.The house has heating in all rooms. The kitchen is equipped with ceramic hob, oven, fridge, cooking utensils and crockery. Are always available oil, olive oil and some basic spices.Nineteenth century house, charming, recently refurbished and fully furnished house, ideal for people looking for a temporary rental. This is an ecological house with regard to the techniques used in its restoration, and also because we reused old furniture. Along side with this, we created conditions for the separation and recycling of garbage, specially the one required to make homemade compost.Located in a peaceful, and extremely beautiful semi-rural area, 100 meters away from the Douro river. You can take nice walks along the river, have your meals in the garden under the shade of vines and have a good night sleep in a very quiet place.The place, called Espinhaço, was inhabited at least since the eighteenth century, mostly by fishermen. It is an ancient village with narrow, winding streets. Today it is a place of good-natured simple people.In the village of avintes we highlighted as the main landmark the Gaia Biological Park, interesting project of nature conservation.Located only 9Km from Porto center, near the main highways that connect the north and south of the country and 27km from Porto's Airport. Nearby there is public transport but with very limited schedules. A car is required.What makes this unique? You can visit the city (not only Oporto, the closest one, but also Guimarâes, Braga, Vila do Conde, Viana do Castelo) and, when returning home, eat and sleep like if you were in the field. You may also decide to do nothing, just sunbathing in the garden, reading, relaxing, enjoying nature, walking ...

Response from the owner Lorsque nous avons récupéré ce bâtiment nous avions comme principe de respecter l'original puisqu'il s'agit d'un bâtiment centenaire, un exemple de l'architecture traditionnelle portugaise. Nous aimons les chauses autenthiques! Les chambres sont petites, mais la maison a 100m2 et un jardin de 300m2!

“Amazing appartment and wonderful landlords!”

Reviewed 7 Oct 2014

We had a amazing stay in Teresa and Pedro's appartment. We could not have asked for more. The appartment was newly renovated by Pedro himself and is nicely furnished. The backyard is big and very beautiful with flowers, grapes shade and sunny spots and allows you to rest and relax after a day in the sun or after having discovered Porto. Teresa and Pedro live next door and help you with everthing you need. They are amazingly friendly! They tell you about good restaurants, nice day trips, and once in a while they even provide you with eggs of their own chicken. For those who have little kids or do not want to stay in the center of Porto and rather prefer a quiet and less touristy surrounding, this is the perfect place! The village is really cute and just next to the Douro river! Porto is not far away and easily accessible by (rental)car. A supermarket is also close by! We warmly recommend this place and would love to come back soon! A big thank you to Pedro and Teresa!
