Vacation rentals in Picote

A casa é ótima, viemos no inverno e a região é muito fria. A casa conta com ar quente na sala e uma aconchegante lareira. Os quartos são um pouco frios, mas a roupa de cama fornecida é totalmente suficiente para aquecer. Fica num lugar bem tranquilo, mas acaba sendo um pouco isolado dos pequenos centros urbanos. Se procura tranquilidade, achou o lugar.

This was a magical week spent at Luis’s apartment. We attribute so much of our enjoyment to his engagement with us from the start to even after our stay, making sure we arrived at our following destination. Luis loves his city as evidenced by his passion and knowledge for its history, cuisine, local Toro wine and every detail and event of Semana Santa. Luis and Miriam helped us navigate the city for the week’s events guiding us to the best locations for observing the processions and the best places to enjoy the food and wine of this beautiful city. His apartment is spotless, well equipped and mattresses are very comfortable. The location is superb, close to the historic center and paths along the river. A Birder’s delight crossing the bridge to the river bank path! We have traveled the globe and with over 60 stays in Airbnbs and never has a host spent so much time and effort ensuring our stay and experience was TOP. Luis went above and beyond! MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Vitor was very kind and a great host. The house is clean and the pool with the garden is great. I can highly recommend this house. Thanks Vitor

Le logement proposé par Daniel est très atypique et chaleureux. Il y a tout ce qu’il faut comme à la maison. Ana nous a très bien accueilli et est très très gentille et disponible. Si l’on recherche la tranquillité et le dépaysement c’est l’endroit idéal. Il y a un café/restaurant fort sympa dans le village et la ville de Mogadouro n’est qu’à 15 min en voiture. Une ville très agréable où nous pouvons trouver tout ce dont on a besoin. Pour les amoureux de la nature et des beaux paysages c’est par ici. Nous reviendrons c’est certain

El sitio es precioso y muy silencioso. Echamos de menos un supermercado más cerca. El más cercano donde puedas comprar de todo estaba a 15 km

Jose’s place, (Pedro is the Son of), has a lovely home in a quiet friendly village. The home was relatively easy to find, (could do with an Airbnb sign on the corner of the property, to help weary travellers). Once arrived and settled in, Jose is a BRILLIANT host, so welcoming, so generous and the home is comfortable and quiet. We enjoyed a meal in a neighbouring town, that Jose, happily booked for us, but there is all the available gear to cook for yourself. The area is close to the Duoro river, and Jose gives so many options for activities for this area. He is very passionate about the history and his town. We would recommend this home to anyone who is in the area.

We enjoyed pur stay at Maria's place a lot! Very cozy stay in the countryside close to the river. We checked in veeery late (01:00) and Maria allowed us to postpone breakfast time. Very comfortable experience! Everything is exceptionally clean. My recommendation!

We felt so lucky to have spent a few days there. Amazing to stay in such a mid century gem, designed by the owner’s architect father. It is quite basic in terms of amenities which adds to its authenticity although cooking is a bit challenging. But the pool is very luxurious. And the home made cheese and daily fresh bread were wonderful. Irene is a kind and friendly host. We could not locate the place but she drove to meet us and lead us there. When a fuse blew one evening (it was extremely hot) she came and fixed it immediately. She could not have been more gracious, we really enjoyed talking with her and hearing about the history of her family and the house. As others have mentioned, the nearest supermarket is about 45 minutes away so be sure to shop on your way. There are two very small refrigerators so bear that in mind when shopping. A truly memorable, special place.
