Slip away to this elegant apartment in the heart of Porto for a romantic few days. It's located just off Rua de Santa Catarina, known for its tasteful boutiques, upscale shops and tantalising pâtisseries. High above the cobbled streets, you're in the quiet and class of this illustrious flat, boasting ornate wall mouldings, exposed stone and refined cream tones. It's a modern and stylish apartment too, with the blue velvet sofa and crushed velvet rug packing a punch in the centre of the room, while dramatic spotlighting, gold-tinted furnishings and a marble dining table keep things luxurious. But this isn't a case of style over substance. With its sleek kitchen, cosy bedroom and swanky en-suite bathroom, this home offer all the mod-cons needed for a comfortable stay. Step out of the building onto the main commercial artery filled with lively crowds and a festive feel. Walk to the vibrant food and flower markets at Mercado do Bolhão and Praça da Liberdade in less than fifteen minutes, and take a short nineteen-minute stroll to the striking Sé do Porto Cathedral – you really couldn't be better placed for taking in the sights and sounds of this beautiful city.
