Holiday home on a holiday park in Cabeceiras de Basto Municipality

Very nice welcome and hosts. From my blog: We stayed in a magical place near Porto. In nature, without TV and relatively few digital incentives. The alarm clock consisted of a number of sheep, each with a bell, who came to graze under your bedroom window in the morning (luckily not too early). Bird concerts were everywhere and at the foot of the mountain you could hear the Tamega River. Every day fresh juice from the oranges, lemons and grapefruit that were still hanging on the trees and had survived the winter. Lots of flowers, plenty of green scrub and trees with nice and fresh scents. Pure peace and breathing space, unobstructed. Everything else was fine!

Very hospitable reception. Beautiful studios with a beautiful decoration. The forests around the domain are very relaxing. Definitely recommended for anyone who wants to escape from the hustle and bustle and relax in the blissful and green north of Portugal. The hospitality of the Portuguese is a a major asset for choosing northern Portugal as a travel destination, and even for visitors who still want to visit the bustle of Porto, there is a convenient train connection in the neighboring town of Penafiel that will immediately introduce you to the breathtaking station of the city of Porto. worth repeating!

Arrival immediately sets the tone for a very pleasant stay: very friendly and warm welcome with nice surprises. The cottage is really great: ideal space for two people, stays cool. Quiet area. The orange trees are also a nice plus! Beautiful surroundings: beautiful views of the hills, much greener than I expected. Can be a bit windy, but is usually very pleasant to cool off! Rural location, with several beautiful towns nearby to visit: Guimarães, Amarante, ... Porto is easily accessible by train from Penafiel or Paredes. The coastal town of Espinho is also easily accessible.
