Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Situated in Porto’s historic Cedofeita neighbourhood, this apartment is perfect for couples or a group of friends travelling together. The place is practical yet comfortable and there are two outside spaces – a patio and a balcony off the main bedroom – though neither has anywhere to sit. If sightseeing is part of your itinerary, the Igreja do Carmo and Chapel of Souls are within 1.5 kilometres of your building. Plus, the waterfront cafes along the Cais da Ribeira are a short drive away.

Sip on wine with a book at Candelabro

Visit the famous Café Piolho Douro
Poilho is without a doubt the most famous cafe is Porto. It's been a students' hangout for over a century and it still maintains a relaxed, local vibe.

Part museum/part gallery but, mostly a restaurant and bar, the quirky decor of this space make it a destination spot for an early evening cocktail
Discover a new artist at Ó! Galeria
This privately-owned gallery features a collection of ilustrations from national and international artists. We predict you'll take a piece home with you.
Eat at Flow Restaurant & Bar
An amazing restaurant placed in a recovered Neo-Arabic building located right on Porto's city center.
One of the most beautiful churches in Portugal
This baroque style church was built in the 18th century. The lateral facade of the Igreja do Carmo is covered with a grandiose Portuguese tile panel, painted by Carlos Branco in 1912.

A cool bar and restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere. Fantastic cocktails, great food (especially the Potato Brava), and attentive staff. Highly recommended for a night out or an afternoon drink.
Indulge in the Best Bolo-Rei at Confeitaria Petúlia
A local gem in a non-touristy area of Porto, Confeitaria Petúlia serves the most tender and moist Bolo-Rei cake. Their savory treats, like Rissol de Carne, are equally delicious. A must-visit for authentic Portuguese pastries and a homely ambiance.
Explore the Charming Igreja de São Martinho
A small yet beautiful church, perfect for small gatherings and worship. A peaceful place of historical significance in Cedofeita.
