Valongo Holiday Rentals are mostly apartments

Whilst research holiday rentals in Porto district I came across the municipality of Valongo. Like so many Porto municipalities, Valongo is really just a suburb but I did come across a few apartments which would make good holiday accomodation within easy reach of the city.

Paredes Holiday Rentals

Since Paredes is the Portuguese word for "Walls" you would expect to find a fair few in this municipality with the same name. In fact there is not much left of the old city walls. There are lots of places in Portugal with "Paredes" in the name and it can be quite confusing, particularly if you are searching on the internet. To find out a bit more about Paredes in Porto district take a look at our main page on Holiday Rentals in Paredes.

Holidayrentals in Penafiel - the forgotten Municipality?

Penafiel seems to be something of a forgotten municipality. To the east are the beautiful areas of Amarante, Marco de Canaveses and Baiao; to the west the more populated areas approaching the city of Porto.

Penafiel is rather lost in the middle, and yet with two major river valleys on its boundaries, this is an attractive place to spend a holiday. You can find out more about holiday rentals in Penafiel by reading our main page.

Holiday Rentals in the City of Porto

When you talk about holiday rentals in Porto you could be talking about anywhere in the administrative district of Porto. The jewel in this crown though is the city of Porto itself.

Restaurants, cafés, riverside walks and boat trips are all centred here. For more details about the attractions of this lovely city you need to look at our main pages on Porto holiday rentals
