Cottages in Toro

It is a very cozy and beautiful house. It has everything needed, very clean and well designed. Highly recommend

The house is lovely and very clean, there is a large seating area on the upper floor, but not much room downstairs in the kitchen area. The bedrooms are a good size and the beds were comfortable. There is a lovely courtyard area, we had our dinner and breakfast outside 😊 The host was very friendly and lives just across the road, so is available if you need anything. She left us some milk, biscuits and coffee, which was appreciated. It is very easy to find and there are some lovely walks from the door. We only stayed for 1 night and we were comfortable.

A hidden treasure. The house is beautifully set up and beautifully and lovingly decorated in country style, like in a magazine and everything one needs is there.The beds were really comfortable and I slept like a baby. It was the middle of winter with frost outside, so the warmth inside was appreciated and also the underfloor heating in the living room. Maria, the lovely owner, always eager to oblige, has created a beautiful home and also spent a lot of her love on the outside spaces, a garden and a courtyard that she planted and decorated in the moorish style with fountains of running water. She has a right to be proud of her work. Too bad, it was too cold for us to sit outside and enjoy the gardens with a glass of wine. Although Maria does not offer breakfast, she runs a little shop nearby from which she offered us coffee (for heating up in the microwave) and home baked sweet bakeries for breakfast. If she offers you her bakeries, do not refuse. You will not be disappointed. I want to go back for more, especially for the lemony almond rounds and also the chocolate brownies. We were on our way to Andalucia, but I wish I could have stayed longer, just for the comfort and the experience. I wish we could have carried Maria's place with us during our travels, truly a home from home (and I'm not one to gush and exaggerate). Had it been warmer, we could have appreciated the location of Castelnuno right on top of the Douro river more and gone for longer walks. But it is still a lovely setting.

So easy to find, right off one of the main roads from Portugal to the ferry port at Bilbao, great for a stopover en route. Dog friendly too

This place is amazing. Beautiful house. Tranquility. Wonderful owners. Highly recommended.
