Summary: We enjoyed our stay very much and the cottage, private garden and shared pool were exceptional.However, it would have been helpful, having arrived tired, late, all shops closed , without provisions to have a starter/welcome pack. A little tea, coffee & milk to tide us over - till we could find a shop the following day, would have been much appreciated. Unfortunately the Air Con machines didn’t work and it was very warm. We had to purchase a fan, which of course we had to leave due to flying, until the engineer came a day or two later. Despite these issues - it’s a beautiful cottage in a charming setting and makes a good base for sightseeing in northern Portugal.
