Casa do Nato -Turismo Rural

We are a family of four, from the UK, with teenage children, and visited in late Aug 2018. The accommodation is nicely located on the edge of Viana do Costello and contains delightful gardens with a pool, plenty of outside seating and the additional benefit of a small annex kitchen for guests to store and prepare their own food (if required). There are two supermarkets 5 mins away, by car and plenty of nice restaurants (we were not ambitious in this regard and so have no recommendations). You are just a 15 min walk from some beautiful, wind swept beaches - 5 mins if you borrow a bike. We took the bikes for an envigorating but highly enjoyable bike ride along the coastal path towards Viana do Costello. The breeze was behind us on the way, but was, more challengingly, in our faces as we returned. Nonetheless the scenery made it worth it. The accommodation was busy whilst we were there, mostly with couples, but never felt in the least bit crowded. Our space / rooms contained two bedrooms, a bathroom and a sitting room and was near to a further comfortable, shared sitting room containing a free pool table. Breakfast was served between 9 - 10.30, with lots of fruit, prepared freshly by the hosts. The hosts were also kind enough to start slightly early when we left, so we had time to make our flight. Porto airport is less than an hour away, by car, along enviously quiet dual carriageways, but when you hire a car you need to factor in the cost of the automatic tolls. You pay the toll charges to the hire car company and, for us, this was a surprising additional 40 Euros (although we did do a fair amount of driving). We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Casa do Nato and recommend it.
