Vacation rentals near Museu de Carlos de Cavalos

José very kindly greeted us. The guest house, located on his property, was very inviting to enter. His wife had baked a cake for us, and he had some fruit in a basket, water and a bottle of wine; which was very much appreciated. The location is about a 10 min drive to Viana do Castelo. We loved the location because it was quiet and felt very relaxing to be away from a city centre. While it wasn't beach weather while we were there, there are a few nearby that are well worth visiting regardless. José recommended Praia da Arda and it was absolutely beautiful to go see.The house itself was a nice size for us, and the grounds are stunning. We didn't have much time to sit outside and eat, but wish we did because it was serene.All in all, we would absolutely return. Thank you so much José and wife.

We stayed 2 weeks in Luisa and Jose's apartment. This was by far the best equipped/furnished apartment we have stayed in. Absolutely everything was there that one could possibly ask for. Luisa and Jose are extremely nice and helpful and easy to communicate with. They met us in front of the apartment and Jose was so kind to carry our bags up to the 2nd floor (back down and the end). Since we were on an extended trip we had 2 large suitcases. The apartment was all we hoped for and the wine, chocolate and nuts they had waiting for us were much appreciated. The apartment is in an excellent location right in the old town, a short walk to everything. If you just want to stay in town a car is not needed since groceries and butcher shops are practically next door. We did many day trips from there and very much enjoyed that area of northern Portugal.

Had a great stay in this apartment. Perfect location - directly across from the beach. While it's on the 4th floor, that allows for a second balcony/terrace with more shade. The unit was clean and comfortable and Close to restaurants and shops. Annick and Antonio were attentive hosts and very welcoming. Would happily stay here again.

A wonderful place to stay in Âncora. Warm reception and beautiful property! Great beach a walk away.

Certainly a first for portugal, a country that skimps on comfort, most 5 star hotels do not have a heated swimming pool, but Casa do Monte does - KUDOS! Casa do monte is definitely a place to comeback to many times over, the location is extremely beautiful with perfect beaches (brrr cold water beaches). KUDOS to the hosts and their ability to offer and deliver a product that is unique in portugal.
