Book a Portugal Cottage

"We loved Antonio’s beautiful little cabin. Very serene and we felt surrounded by tranquility. There was a miscommunication on our part about not knowing we needed a car, which we didn’t have. Antonio was excellent and sorted things out and so all was good. Thank you Antonio"

"Wow what an amazing place. Wonderful hosts that made us feel so welcome and a really authentic beautiful home surrounded by a beautiful garden and views of the surrounding mountains. We were so happy to have found this place to stay! Our 3 and 5 year old also loved it."

"Wonderful cozy house with a fully equipped kitchen. The food supplied on our arrival was unexpected and appreciated as we arrived later than expected. Quiet, friendly community right near the ocean with trails within walking distance of the home. "

"Great place, highly recommend. Very friendly owners and really convenient area. "

"We stayed at Albertina's house for 8 days in the middle of a very hot spell in August. The house is beautiful and absolutely immaculately clean. The swimming pool is great and grounds are huge -you have total privacy and quiet for your stay. If you are looking for a place to chill and relax this is it! Most importantly for this stay there was amazing air conditioning in all bedrooms and the living room which meant we were very comfortable even on the day it reached 43 C outside! Albertina is...

"We had a very relaxing time, and enjoyed ourselves doing very little, sometimes just sitting out on the veranda watching the trees and the day go by. Ellen is a lovely host, and made us feel very welcome."

"Everything was as advertised ,clean and functional. The host went out of her way to make sure that my experience was first class and it was. A big shout out to her neighbor who pitch hit for her When she hurt her leg. It’s very close to the train station maybe five minutes by car and it made the right into Douro very very easy."

"Emilia was very easy to communicate with and we enjoyed our stay very much. Lovely patio deck overlooking traditional homes and very quiet location. Fully equipped kitchen. 2 bedrooms. One upstairs queen sized bed connected to patio and the other off the small living room with a well ventilated ceiling sky light. Very cozy."

"This is the second time we stay at this beautiful place. Great location, comfortable rooms, good food, and most importantly amazing staff that always go the extra mile to make your stay a special one. Special thanks go to Mr. José Mendez who always makes sure that all guests are having a wonderful time. Furthermore, the swimming pool is very nice and heated, and we really enjoyed the mini-golf and the little steam next to it. "

"Our hosts, Maria Eugenia and Jose, were amazing! Kind, informative, generous, helpful, I can't say enough about them. We stayed for four days, two couples in the larger home. It was spacious, each couple with their own bathroom. We ate most of our meals at home. Our comadre caught a cold right upon arrival. She had a comfortable place to read, rest and recover, while we enjoyed the pool and had such a wonderful outing in the boat on the Douro river. This was definitely a once in a life time...

"Thoroughly enjoyed it"

"Lovely quiet holiday in the country, and still on the Algarve, not an English breakfast or fish and chips in sight, the accommodation is great and suited us well, plenty of room to site out on the patio's and enjoy the sunshine. It's a five mile drive to get to the shops so a car is a necessity, there is a little Portuguese cafe / bar just down the road that does nice coffee. Mary the owner who lives next door can not do enough for you. We had four weeks there and can not wait to go back. Thank...

"We enjoyed your property. Had a hard time finding it at night. But locals were great to help us find it."

"If you want a relaxing natural Life is the way to go"

"The villa was lovely, the pool photo is a little misleading as the pool is actually green, not blue. The instructions on how to get to the villa are a little misleading, we were advised to come off the A8 at junction 20,when in fact, if you come off the A8 at Junction 21 it is easier to find, perhaps a sign on the road just before the turn off would be good as it is not a named road, and just a dirt track that is easily missable. Also, it might be good to advise people staying in the villa that...

"A casa é mas tem o essencial. A piscina é partilhada e é ideal para crianças, não é muito extensa. Na quinta, tem os animais, galinhas, gansos, perús e a burra, que é um sucesso com as crianças. Os donos foram muitos atenciosos. Gostaria repetir a estadia."

"Had a really lovely time at the villa"

"Pure magic. I told my husband that I thought this listing had to be fake because for the price, right ON THE BEACH, 3BR 2BTH, absolute perfection. This beach bungalow is in the side of a cliff at the very edge of Benagil. Overlooking the famous beach and facing ocean with cliff face, it could not be more picturesque. The house was perfect for family because it is narrow with no hall across bedrooms but the trade off of the unique, super special location is no contest. Only ask I would have for...

"Very nice small house in a quiet country area. Well appointed. Extremely friendly and helpful staff."

"The nostalgic and tastefully furnished property is located in a park-like garden. The special feature is an aboretum with a jungle character that was created generations ago. The terrace of the house has an unobstructed sea view. The location is ideal for exploring the area. We really enjoyed our vacation here."
