Holiday rentals near Quinta da Aveleda

We had a wonderful stay at Alvaro’s home in Porto. He met us on arrival, and gave us all sorts of great tips of where to go and in what order. While away from all the tourists, it was very workable to get into the old part of Porto. The apartment was fantastic, and well appointed.

A beautiful renovation of an old existing hillside farmhouse into a combination of very modern and original features. Excellent accommodation with five en-suite bathrooms, a stunning lounge area and a chef's kitchen. Glass walls to the SE side of the accommodation to provide stunning views over the garden, hillsides and down to the Douro. Early morning fog bands make it very atmospheric. Highly recommended, but it is down the end of a long narrow lane. So travelling in a full-size car is a challenge for the unfamiliar! Excellent bakery in the village as well as a homely restaurant.

Fernando's apartment was centrally located and we couldn't have asked for a better location. So many restaurants and bars to choose from right below us. Fernando greeted us with some snacks and a bottle of wine, which was a lovely gesture. He went out of his way to help us when my husband hurt his back. A delightful place to stay and we would love to return!

From the moment we booked this property owned by Isabel we could not fault her communication , her willingness to assist and on arrival the apartment was immaculate and beautifully styled , it’s central location made it very easy to see all the attractions in Porto , Isabel’s restaurant recomendations were fabulous , Al in all a 10:10 experience

We loved our stay here. Elisa was available when ever we needed to know any thing or required anything. The apartment was as described and more. The location was perfect for exploring Porto and yet almost considered urban. Central and yet quiet. Excellent eating in close proximity. And as a lot of the reviews commented on the bakery/breakfast was an added delight. Staff were an absolutely delight in their treatment of us. Thank you all so much for making our time in Porto special.

If I could have given Isabel 10 stars I would have! Her apartment in Porto is as charming as she is. Thank you so much for making our stay in Porto such a memorable one Isabel. Debra
