About this property

Casa da Montanha, (Mountain house) is located in a farm close to the Douro Valley were the Port Wine is produced, (12 km) that has been recently recognized by Unesco as world heritage. Close by are historical villages, medieval monasteries, and a fascinating medieval village almost intact since the 12th century. Being so close to the river Douro this makes possible for visitors to envoy trips by boat on the river including the visit to wine cellars. This property that covers 8 acres, lawns, shrubs, and trees most of them oak, has been in my family for the last 200 years, the house is located at 750 metres high with a spectacular view over a beautiful valley facing a mountain of great beauty. Sitting in the garden or by the pool, gazing the view, breathing fresh air, it's a great place to relax due to the fact of being totally isolated in nature, the nearest house is the owners house at a distance of 60 metres .

What a view!

We had a week st this property. The kitchen is quite basic with a four ring cooker and a microwave, We soon realised that it was best to take advantage of the super restaurants in the area! The location is excellent for exploring and the owners suggestions of where to go were welll received. I was nervous about our car being able to manage the steep road up and down but no issues arose. The garden area was super to relax in

Stunning views

Jose was very welcoming and the property was very comfortable. Jose gave us lots of good advice about restaurants and places to visit. The kitchen is basic but there are so many good and inexpensive places to eat out that that didn’t really matter.

Mountain house

The property has amazing views and is very convenient for the supermarkets which are less than 10 minutes drive. Jose was very helpful with his local knowledge which we really appreciated. Jose was an excellent host, ensuring that we had everything we needed. We had an amazing holiday.

A beautiful retreat

Jose’s mountain retreat is the perfect place to relax and unwind. It is peaceful and secluded with the added luxury of a private pool. Porto is just over an hour away and there are plenty of small villages and country walks in the vicinity. Viseu is well worth a visit as are the natural pools and waterfall just outside of Vila Real.

Fantastic place to stay and a wonderful host

We’d stayed in Jose’s place for a week. Had a great time, driving to villages, visiting rivers and monasteries. And the cottage was a great place to hang out or come back to later in the day. And Jose was a wonderful host. Met us nearby to show us how to reach the property. Chatted to us about the local area and gave great tips on places to visit. Will definitely be visiting again!
