Our region is special to us because it offers
“Vineyard sightseeing, boat trips along the Douro River, winery visits, winetastings, exploring traditional gastronomy, foot-treading a lagar during harvest.”
We like to enjoy our beautiful destination with
“Family and friends and we like introducing new friends to our special place.”
To us, the best way to recharge batteries is
Manuel: “A walk through the spectacular Douro vineyards, followed by a winery visit, winetasting and a relaxing afternoon in quiet infinity pool facing the Douro River.”
Teresa: “Sightseeing of local monuments and traditional architecture, boat trips along the Douro River, exploring local gastronomic traditions. We have so many incredible cheeses, specialty meats, game, and incredible desserts. This is one of the most relaxing places in the world and we are lucky enough to live here!”
