Testimonials

What a wonderful surprise! The Meca Retreat was everything the website promised and more—spacious, modern, yet full of old-world charm. It was spotless, dog-friendly, and felt instantly welcoming.
Our only regret was not staying longer. Next time, we’ll be sure to bring more family members and enjoy an extended stay. We highly recommend this hidden gem!

Meca Retreat is a comfortable well equipped property set in a very peaceful rural area of North Portugal. There are panoramic views from the house and you can hear the tranquil chimes from the church across the valley. The owners are extremely helpful and there is an added bonus of the swimming pool especially on hot days. There are plenty of walks around the village but a car is essential to explore the interesting area, we would thoroughly recommend a visit to Ponte de Lima. Close by is a small shop and about 2 kilometres away a Restaurant that serves delicious food at a very reasonable price. We did enjoy our stay at Meca Retreat ,our Thanks to Beverley.

Lovely quiet place and beautiful walks 😍😍 Now with swimming pool and garden to compliment the beautifully restored interior capturing tradition alongside the latest facilities in terms of appliances and bathrooms 😍😍😍

Spent a wonderfully relaxing week at Meca Retreat. The traditional house has been beautifully renovated, keeping all the original features but with modern amenities. The views are spectacular and the only sounds you will hear are the church clock chiming on the hour and the odd farm dog barking. Large enough for a family but cosy enough for a romantic stay. The owners pay attention to detail and communication is excellent. Thank you! We will definitely make a return trip.

Séjour ídolo que dans un cadre magnifique. Merci de votre accueil une belle rencontre, je vous souhaite beaucoup de succès car c’est un endroit féerique digne d’un compte de fée, nous partons maintenant encore un grand merci pour ce petit coin de paradis. Bien à vous.
