Strongly considering this as the summer’s international festival, but it’s trickier to get to than some. Is it best to fly to Porto and go from there? (From London, that is.)

Travel by plane to Porto and then take a bus to Paredes de Coura.

I didn't find it tricky at all. Bus was easy, comfortable and direct - don't remember any traffic even which can blight UK festivals.

Parede de Coura, is a super calm village.
Festival is very well organized. The director thinks a lot about his fans.

Thanks. Is that a festival bus or a more regular one? Google Maps suggested a cab because of a lack of alternatives…

Normally there are buses from/to the most important portuguese cities announced later in the year (during spring)

The bus is called ‘Rede Expressos’ and they run from Porto bus station to the festival.
