About this property
Villa 315 Fully Renovated Typical Stone House
Located on a quiet community and within easy reach to the sandy beaches, this villa is the result of a beautifully converted farm worker's cottage situated just outside the old fishing village of Apulia which is flanked by lush green pine forests. The accommodation is very comfortable, fully equipped with fireplace and air conditioning, including a large covered barbecue area ideal for alfresco dining. The gardens are always well maintained and guests have the use of a picnic area in the woods which is reached within a 3 minute walk.
The rural yet convenient location of the area, with its agricultural fields, olive groves, vineyards (where you will be able to taste the famous Vinho Verde!) and its proximity to the roman delights of Barcelos, makes it an excellent place for a perfectly relaxing and cultural holiday in the Minho region.

Nicely renovated in pleasant rural setting, easy access to Porto, Braga and nearby beaches.The people from distinctive Portugal couldn’t be nicer and easier to deal with.
La maison est bien située proche des belles et grandes plages. Les villes et sites historiques sont facilement accessibles.
Le supplément à payer pour chauffer la piscine nous a semblé excessif.
Ce serait le paradis s’il n’y avait pas autant d’aboiements de chiens aux alentours.
Une très belle maison, parfaitement aménagée.
Extérieur et pool housse très sympathique.
Environnement très calme

Très calme
Une maison situé dans un village atypique au calme. A proximité de grandes villes et de sites d'excursions. Le logement est idéal pour une famille ou entre amis, exposition au soleil toute la journée dans le jardin et piscine, la maison reste fraîche grâce au carrelage. La véranda avec le barbecue est très sympa, ce qui permet de rester proche de la piscine.
