Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Cova

I spent a glorious month at Maria Celeste’s home. It was simply the best place to reset, connect with nature & rest. I’ve never been to a more peaceful home. Freshly squeezed orange juice (from trees) every morning. Lemons for water. A natural spring to swim off hiking grime. Mountains to climb surrounding the entire home. Lizard & butterfly friends. And so so quiet. Maria Celeste picked me up & drove me to the location. Taxi services available to go to town when needed. I can not recommend staying at this home more. If you need some R’n’R, stay. You won’t regret it.

We cannot say enough about how enjoyable, peaceful, and satisfying our stay was in Fontelo at Marina’s house! The house feels spacious and open, with everything you need to be right at home. The views are incredible and the pool and outdoor spaces are functional and enjoyable. I wish I could go back and have another cup of coffee outside, watching the sun rise over the vineyard hills. A 15-minute drive to the Douro River makes tasting the local wines and Port very accessible — just make sure to check the route before following your GPS or you may end up on a dirt farm road :-) Marina is friendly and responsive, always willing to help with questions or suggestions for where to shop and eat. We are already looking forward to our return!

Superbe villa, encore plus belle que sur les photos!! Endroit paisible et privé. Idéal pour un séjour en famille, nous enfants ont beaucoup apprécié. Hôte au top, professionnel, amical, très réactif. Je recommande à 1000%

We had the most incredible stay at this beautiful home! It’s spacious, stylish, and absolutely perfect for a large group. The layout is ideal with bedrooms upstairs and downstairs feels like a dedicated hosting space, perfect for socialising, gathering, a nice big hot tub!!!! The views are truly spectacular we enjoyed barbecuing while overlooking the vineyards, which felt like something out of a dream. It’s even more stunning in real life than in the photos (which is saying a lot!). The hostess was absolutely lovely so friendly and helpful. She responded promptly to every request and made us feel so welcome throughout our stay. I genuinely can’t fault this place. If I could, I’d return every weekend! It’s ideal for groups of friends, families. The house is incredibly well-suited for the Douro Valley and ticks every box. Thank you, thank you, thank you for such a wonderful stay! Would 101% recommend!

We had a great three-day stay. The place was private, with a spacious bedroom, balcony, and two bathrooms. It was perfect for our dog — we could walk him off-leash in the village. We all enjoyed drinking the cool, fresh water from the mountain fountain! The lake access was a nice bonus. The host was very welcoming and gave great local recommendations. A relaxing and comfortable stay overall! :)

On our trip to Portugal, the Douro Valley was the highlight of the trip from the storybook views to the spread of freshly picked cherries, homemade preserves and wine awaiting our arrival to the cleanliness and comforts of a beautiful home perched high up on the vineyard terraced hills. The game room was an incredible surprise - there are seven eighties arcade games along with a ping pong table, a foosball table and an infinity game with over 150 board games built into the table. The hospitality was second to none. Gabrella, the property manager, was one step ahead of us ensuring that we had everything we needed to make our stays one of the most memorable. Sephi, the owner, is one of the most generous people we have ever met. His passion for region and willingness to offer his time to you is amazing. We spent one morning touring his winery, learning the old way of making wine and enjoying the fruits of his labor – an extraordinary experience not a just another Air BnB.

Fomos em família e a estadia foi acolhedora e tranquila. Recomendo a localização, a casa é maravilhosa e os vizinhos muito simpáticos. É importante porém informar que é preciso ter viatura e esclarecer com mais clareza que o acesso às mesmas pode ser desafiante , dependendo de qual se trata. A entrada na casa é complicada, porque para quem chega de noite não é iluminada e o acesso ao cofre do self check in nao está acessível para quem está de fora. Um dos quartos é de acesso mais difícil, ideal para os mais jovens, mas não para visitas com mais limitações. Apesar das recomendações de melhoria, sublinha-se a tranquilidade, a paisagem incrível, e o conforto da casa, que está pensado ao detalhe. Vamos voltar! Obrigada

acomodação perfeita, ambiente perfeito, piscina e vistas maravilhosas além de uma anfitriã muito proativa, simpática e receptiva. francamente o melhor airbnb que ja aluguei.

위치가 너무 좋구 출입도 비밀번호로 하는거라 너무 편리했습니다 호스트 답변도 빨리왔고 창밖에 살짝씩 보이는 뷰도 너무 좋았습니다

Just perfect 2 min walk from restaurants and shops, just stunning views. They let us check in early at no extra costs, it was magnificent. Thank and will stay again very soon. Thank you once again.

Alles in bester Ordnung :) schön renoviertes Gebäude :) - Parkplatz Zufahrt etwas spannend aber schaffbar :)

Abi and Regina are exceptional hosts who made our stay memorable. We especially enjoyed the tour of the animation museum by Abi which was fascinating The property is very lovely, the flower and vegetable gardens are incredible and the whole ambience is very relaxing. A perfect place to stay for several days. We thoroughly recommend staying here and look forward to returning

Great place to stay and having three complete private bedrooms is highly beneficial when traveling with family. We hope to return for a longer trip in the future to soak in the sun and visit the Douro Valley. Very accessible location.

Felt like living in the middle of Porto. Close to lots of bars and restaurants. Nice apartment and very at home feel. We were there when Portugal won euro finals so very noisy from the bars outside, but thats to be expected! Lovely apartment

we had a wonderful stay at Maria’s apartment! the views from the living room and garden were incredible and we were so close to many great restaurants, shops, bars, and tourist attractions. the host was able to accommodate a slightly early check in and we met at the apartment to pick up the keys and be shown around the building. we were also given a map with some recommendations and directions to the event we were in town for. the garden area is shared between all 4 units in the building. i believe the hosts family is two units and the other two are rentals. it was a little rainy during our stay so we only went out to the garden a couple times but it was very pleasant out there and we got to meet the host’s dog! everything in the apartment was great and we felt right at home for our 5 nights in porto. would highly recommend staying here!

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié la rencontre avec Manuel pour notre arrivée dans le logement. Ses conseils pour les visites étaient excellents. L'appartement était impeccable, nous y reviendrons sans hésitation car tout était parfait!

Nous étions invités à un mariage à la quinta Solar da Levado à Amares, la maison de Cidalia est assez proche (8min) ce qui est plutôt appréciable en cas de fatigue. La maison est très très grande et propre sur un double niveau. Un beau jardin potager/ fleuri est appréciable pour profiter du beau temps. Cidalia est très réactive et donne des instructions très claires. En tant que voyageur pensez juste à prendre de l'espèce pour régler la taxe municipale.

Aurora was a fabulous host, very accommodating & friendly. We loved our time staying at Casa Lima. The place was in a private and beautiful location, which hosted a group of 11 people. We enjoyed having fresh bread delivered by Aurora daily, which made for a lovely experience. The place was clean and tidy with lots of space. All bedrooms had bathrooms, the kitchen was well equipped for cooking meals, and we enjoyed swimming in the pool.

We had an absolutely incredible stay! The house is even better than the pictures, and our host could not have been more wonderful, flexible, accommodating and welcoming. A few highlights that aren’t immediately obvious: fresh bread delivery every morning, kitchen is wonderful and very easy to cook in, charcoal grill outside is fantastic - and lovely for grilling fresh fish in! (ask if fish is available from the local fish monger!). You can also easily do a day trip into Porto from this hidden paradise. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Ricardo and his father Mario, or this amazing villa!

Came with some friends - had a wonderful stay Thankyou very much!! Absolutely stunning property and super helpful hosts - we all LOVED the stay - such a perfect getaway for a few days :) Great amenities and Pool and hot tub - we felt spoiled!

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. La maison est très propre et très agréable. La vue et la piscine sont exceptionnels avec une incroyable vue sur Sistelo. La maison est bien située pour visiter le parc du Gerês et tout est bien indiqué ! Merci à Nuno pour l’accueil et toutes les instructions !

We spent 10 days in the country house and had such a lovely stay. Vania made us feel welcome and provided us with all we needed for our baby. The house is charming, authentic yet clean and equipped with all you need. The location has a lot to offer on a day trip and transport to Porto and the airport is easy. This experience is beyond what can be expected from the average Airbnb, have already recommended to friends and family and we hope to come back :-)

The best Airbnb I have stayed at, the owners communication was clear and concise and enabled us a group to have a really good trip, once again many thanks !

Un fin de semana increíble en casa de Nuno en familia. Estuvimos muy cómodos. Salón comedor ideal para hacer comidas familiares mientras se está en la piscina. La zona de jardín muy cuidada al igual que la piscina. Las habitaciones iguales que en las fotos, muy cómodas y luminosas. La cocina tenía todo lo necesario para cocinar sin problema. La comunicación con Nuno muy sencilla, nos dio recomendaciones locales geniales. Volveríamos con los ojos cerrados.
