Description Blue Sails: Porto addremove

We had to break from doing some serious shopping to tell you about this Porto gem. This elegant apartment, housed in a recently renovated 20th-century building, is located right in the heart of the pedestrianised retail hub of Rua Santa Catarina. For fresh produce and a vibrant atmosphere, head to Mercado do Bolhão, a three-minute walk away. It's not all about shopping, though – the Chapel of Souls is a two-minute walk away, where you'll discover its beautiful azulejo tiled façade. Or take a break in the Café Majestic, a beautiful Art Nouveau café, a five-minute walk from this home. A little further, Porto Cathedral is fourteen minutes on foot. Then stop off at the small port wine shop opposite this home and take some back to this apartment.

Inside, there are furnishings from Portuguese designers and artists. Lots of large windows allow light to flood in. We adore the spacious open plan living space with its two French doors, which open onto a small balustraded balcony overlooking the street. Off the bedroom, there's a secluded terrace too, perfect for a coffee or glass of Port. Later, chill out on the mezzanine level or have a game of chess. There's plenty of room for a family or friends to spread out here. If you prefer to eat in, whip up a bacalhau à Gomes (cod casserole) in the modern kitchen and enjoy it at your dining table. Honestly, though, you probably won't be spending that much time indoors with so much on your doorstep.



Home truths:
*There are some building works happening nearby so expect some noise disturbance during the day
*This apartment is located on the first floor, and there's no lift - heavy packers or those with limited mobility, beware
*Child-friendly amenities such as a cot, travel cot, high chair, baby bath, children's tableware and changing table are available upon request, with prior notice
*The second bedroom is off the living space, divided by sliding partition walls
*The mezzanine is open with a low wall, so care may be needed if you have little ones
*There's fast wifi here
*Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport is around twenty minutes by car
