Description

Gazing out to mile upon tranquil mile of sun-soaked vineyards, this striking house makes a fabulous hillside retreat and a fine base for lovers of food, wine and nature. Along with lovely country walks almost on the doorstep, the villa is well placed for excellent eateries, both simple and sophisticated, and guests are invited to enjoy, free of charge, a wine-tasting visit to one of the Port producing quintas. Leisurely days of local exploration could include a cruise on the Duoro River, inclusive for guests staying two weeks here, or the super-scenic journey of the valley’s historic steam train, following the riverside from Pinhão to Foz Tua through a landscape carved with terraced vineyards. Back at the villa, breakfast is included daily, a complimentary meal can be prepared during a stay of 7 nights or more, and extra cook service can be arranged for true relaxation. With satellite TV, WiFi, air conditioning and central heating, Vineyard Cottage has a cosy and comfy living room, a games room with snooker table, three elegantly traditional bedrooms with contemporary bath/shower rooms, and a small sitting room with big open views and direct access to the hexagon pool and al fresco dining terrace.
