“This was a great villa! Hugely spacious and a gorgeous pool. The only negative is that there are not enough photos to show how nice it is! Sharon and Ian were so easy to deal with it’s just a pity we didn’t get the chance to meet. Sharon send us a tremendous amount of information on the entire area which was really useful. The area is very picturesque and there is a great walk by the waters edge all the way to the village....about 30mins. We enjoyed walking there every morning for coffee.....great little cafe there just by a fab beach. Just up the hill from the village was a lovely restaurant with superb views which we ate at several times and would highly recommend. The seafood was excellent and the staff incredibly welcoming and friendly. We were there for a relaxing week so not really interested in sightseeing although there was so much to see. So we didn’t really do much touring around but We did visit the walled town of Óbidos which was stunning. We walked through the cobbled streets and then around the walls. The fort is so impressive. The shops there are so quaint and there was a great Sunday market. We also went on a wine tasting trip at a local vineyard called Quinta Do Sanguinhal which was a great day out....well worth doing. You do need to book though. All in all we had a super week thoroughly enjoying ourselves and would definitely recommend this swap. Many thanks Jules and John”
