Portugal is crammed with history, culture and cuisine, and these three characteristics have seen it visited by over 10 million tourists a year (and counting). Add stunning scenery to that list and you’ve got an endless supply of activities to keep you occupied.
The country is renowned for its enchanting cities, with the capital of Lisbon perched on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. Its distinctive culture is emphasised by traditional fado music reverberating through the charming cobblestone streets and pastelarias serving up delicious pastéis de nata (custard tarts). For a unique way to explore the beautiful old town, hop aboard tram 28 – one of a few old fashioned tram lines still operating in Lisbon today. Porto, the second-largest city, offers up a charming medieval centre, coastal walks and bistros serving up ‘Francesinha’– a typical meat and cheese-filled sandwich distinctive to the city. Many popular beaches can be found closeby, such as the scenic shores of Gaia or Espinho. Hotels, B&Bs and apartments are dotted all over the country. You’ll also find a variety of guest houses and unique accommodation houses in charming manor houses or restored stone cottages and farmhouses.

Everything, it was an amazing experience overall. The team was great in everything we required. Was an excellent stay. The location is beautiful, we could see the sea through the window. The restaurant was divine and the spa was so relaxing and I wish I had spend more days there. Will definitely be back.

Guest review
A wonderful new renovated house in the old city. The host are very friendly and helpful with everything. The hotel has definetly a higher standard, than the stars might tell. The breakfast provided a wide variety of everything. Even peanut butter 😉You have the town right infront of your steps, but you here nothing of it inside. Car park and the next bus stop are near by.

Guest review
Fantastic hotel, would 100% recommend.
The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Probably the best hotel breakfast we’ve ever had!
Unlimited access to the coffee machine.
Loads of easy parking.
Great location.
Lovely pool and spa.
The room was very large and had a powerful shower.
Everyone was new as the hotel was only been open for a year.
We had a problem with our flight - it was delayed by 6 hours until after 3am, so Tony (the hotel owner), kindly picked us up (as the taxi ranks were closed). The hotel staff had excellent communication when discussing our delayed flight problem through the booking.com website.
