Owner profile
About the owner
We came to North Portugal by chance in 1993, adored the area, the people, the style of life, the rest is big History as we have been resident ever since. We own a tourism complex ( Property P3836 on Owners Direct ) and just 10 minutes away this superb lodge ( Property P10913 on Owners Direct ) This superb lodge was built and fitted out with furniture in later 2011 as an extension to the tourism business.
Year purchased: 1993
Why the owner chose a home in this location
We were looking for a change of lifestyle and direction where we could feel free, somewhere with clean air and water, stunning scenery, good beaches, little traffic, and friendly people. We found it here it by complete chance. You can see the hills of the Peneda Geres National Park in Portugal from our property, also to the north the hills that form the frontier with Spain. We have two cultures and gastronomies on our doorstep. There are an amazing number of restaurants and of course we now have the big supermarkets where you can do a one shop. Airports at Porto in Portugal and Santiago de Compostella in Spain now offer a good service throughout the year.
Unique benefits of the property
Very family / couple orientated, we are not the place for groups that are looking for the high life. The Portuguese are excellent hosts and offer good food at very reasonable prices. Some of Portugals best Vinho Verde wine is grown directly in the area and available direct from the suppliers.
