The Portuguese are as intensely proud of their rich history as they are of their football and their stunning scenery: terraced vineyards, hill forts, river beaches and nature reserves, cork, fig and olive groves and the deep blue, beautiful Atlantic.
This guide leads you to guest houses, hotels and self-catering properties from the simple, cheap and charming to the grandly historic - pousadas, castles, forts and convents - and designer-decadent new kids on the block. You'll come across rustic houses with funky & fresh interiors, antique furniture, painted tiles, vaulted ceilings, carved beds, local crafts and the kindest hosts who go the extra mile to make your stay special - perhaps with seafood stew, fresh tomatoes and whole crabs; pork and clam casserole; home-grown wine, fresh figs, cherries?
