David Hockney would be at home here

Beautiful, cool house. Wonderfully equipped for a large group. Location yards from a stunning beach and on top of a river for paddle boarding. Couple of bikes for shopping trips. We managed without a car but better with one I think. Boats walk is great and bird life amazing. Take your binos. Restaurants in walking distance at Fao but great fish restaurants are an hours walk door to door and limited taxis ( drivers said there were 3 times tourists this year so hopefully this will right itself) Porto is 1/2 hr by taxi and is exquisite. Owner is v responsive and helpful.

Casa Pinhal is a lovely villa extremely well equipped and has everything you need for an enjoyable stay for rest and relaxation. The pool is not heated but is good to swim in though refreshing. The beach is less than 3 minutes walk away. An ideal place for surfing and kite surfing. In easy reach of Porto, Braga and Guimarães for culture etc. Boutique hotel Sense of Ofir a few minutes walk away has a lovely terrace and restaurant. Carlos did everything possible to make our stay stress free and we had a lovely holiday yes I would recommend Casa Pinhal

Fabulous location for unspoilt beach fun and an authentic experience

A spacious, relaxed and comfortable property with plenty of room for our family party of 8 adults, with space for gathering as a large group or taking time out as a couple or smaller gang. Incredible access to a beautiful beach ( 3 minutes walk) and riverside boardwalk running through a nature reserve. Plenty of equipment at the house, including bikes and a canoe, and a well-equipped kitchen. Friendly surfer vibe in the local hamlet Ofir, with relaxed bars and restaurants in easy walking distance, and fabulous fish restaurants a very short drive away. Friendly hosts who sorted out a minor issue caused by a local power outtage very quickly. Only downside was the unheated pool, which even in August felt freezing - if heated, this would have been an absolute dream property. Easy access to and from Porto via an express metro a few miles away meant that this was a perfect location for a day exploring the city. Would definitely recommend

Great location, house and facilities

Stayed for a week as a party of eight with three children. House and location were as described in photos/text and did not disappoint. Secluded location, excellent house and well kept gardens that suited us well. Pool was spotless with pool man and gardeners both attending during the week. House clean and well equipped with no problems - a little dated in places, but none the worse for it. Easy walk (15mins) to various cafes and bars with a wider choice within 30 minutes walk. No problems at all and would stay again.

Outstanding location for the beach & water-based activities, great house for larger group

10 of us had an excellent time staying at Casa Pinhal - great gardens and nice pool for relaxing/reading, plenty of space inside and on the patio to choose a comfortable place to be. Ample bathrooms, bedrooms all worked for us ~ combinations of twins and doubles. Kitchen could use a little TLC, but all worked OK. Easy access to the local beaches (Atlantic and river-side) for surfing, horse riding, kite surfing etc., We also found quad-biking and canoeing locally too. Need a car really of you are planning to go out & about (enjoyed Braga, Barcelos, Porto). Would certainly consider returning to the area ~ even in mid July, temperatures were not at all oppressive ~ and also the house if future dates worked.
