Nestled in the picturesque vineyards and olive groves of the Douro Valley, with stunning views over the landscape, this gorgeous villa waits to welcome you. An open-plan layout makes it easy to keep an eye on the kids while you play a game of snooker or cook up a mouth-watering meal in the fully-equipped kitchen. Dine alfresco on the covered terrace and let them tire themselves out in the pool during the afternoon. In the meantime, work on that perfect tan from the sun loungers, drink in hand as you look out over the impressive valley. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring the outside in, so you can admire clear blue skies or a peachy sunset while getting some remote work done at the dining table or enjoying a game of chess in the recreation room.

The charming town of Pinhão is just a scenic walk or a short drive away, known for its delectable wines and rich port heritage. Relish in tours of local wineries and restaurants, before heading down the Douro River on a boat tour, or packing up the car and driving a little further for a day at the beach. When you return home, sink into the bubbles of the Jacuzzi under the stars.

Bridge Over Tranquil Water

This bright and modern two-bedroom apartment offers a stylish base in the quaint town of Peso da Régua – perfect for soaking up the charm of the Douro Valley, with its wineries and rolling hills. With two spacious bedrooms and a sofa bed in the living area, it comfortably sleeps up to six guests - meanwhile, the open-plan layout is full of natural light, and the fully equipped kitchen makes it easy to settle in. After a day exploring local wineries or cruising the river, head back for a swim in the shared pool or relax in the outdoor lounge area. Thoughtfully designed and ideally located, this is a great spot to experience the beauty and rhythm of the Douro.

Golden Douro

With a huge grassy garden, an inviting alfresco kitchen and dining area, a large swimming pool surrounded by sun loungers, and loads of places in which to sit back, relax, and enjoy a glass of regional Vinho Verde, this home gives a whole new meaning to the phrase 'outdoor living'. Fire up some friendly competition out on the tennis court and on the table tennis table. Prepare a mouthwatering feast in the traditional churrasco to be enjoyed poolside. Or simply find your favourite spot and curl up with a good book whilst soaking up the Portuguese sunshine. 

If you've (somehow) had enough of outside, then indoors certainly isn't lacking in entertainment options, either. Cosy up in front of an old classic or a new family favourite in the cinema room or slip into something suitably elegant for a meal in the swanky dining room. The interior of this home has a unique, almost retro-feeling glamour to it, one that feels at once contemporary and entirely timeless. Polished wood, stone, leather, and marble are stylishly combined, the overall effect being one that embraces and highlights natural textures and materials.

Nestled on a relatively quiet stretch of northwestern Portuguese coastline just outside the beautiful city of Braga, we think this home is ideal for those looking to uncover a slightly different side to ever-popular Portugal, allowing you to delve into its rich history and culture away from the crowds. Don't miss out on the chance to sun yourself on the area's pristine beaches, or take a trip around Braga – home to castles, cultural attractions, and gastronomical delights galore.

The Grass is Greener in Braga

You'll have your pick of outdoor spaces and a private swimming pool to make the most of this villa's Douro Valley views. Fitting, as this spot in Peso da Regua is famous for its picturesque countryside and ancient vineyards. While the interiors certainly aren't as eye-catching as the surrounding scenery, each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, and larger groups have the option to add five extra beds to sleep up to fifteen guests. As an added bonus, breakfast deliveries of fresh bread and pastries are included – what a great way to start your day.

Douro Duet

Drive up to this remarkable home and you’ll find yourself charmed from the outset. Its distinctively regional architecture – with its decorative red trim against white stucco walls – is a shining example of Portuguese eclectic design, and its unique aura continues both inside and outside its walls. Feel at home immediately with its cosy living room and its four bedrooms, each with ensuite bathroom – and relax into easy living outside, with its patios, spacious garden and the stunning swimming pool surrounded by sun loungers and umbrellas. 

The Aura of the Douro

This modern villa offers you comfort and style during your getaway to Portugal. Crisp white walls, accompanied by cream and beige decor create a cosy yet contemporary feel. The living space is lit up by the large floor-to-ceiling windows, with a gorgeous view of the surrounding landscape – the perfect backdrop when putting your feet up to read a brand new book. The windows double up as balcony doors where you can enjoy the refreshing breeze as you sip on an energising cup of coffee or a sumptuous glass of wine. 

The open plan space allows you to cook up a storm in the kitchen, with the delicious aroma wafting through the home – what could be better than a scenic view when cooking for your loved ones? Light bites can be enjoyed at the breakfast bar, or enjoy a tasty plate of food together at the dining table. Take a refreshing dip in the pool no matter the time of day – we recommend spending evenings out here, with the gorgeous amber glow of the sunset shining upon the terrace.

River Hills

Discover the magic of the Douro Valley from this secluded holiday home. With stunning views of the surrounding vineyards and countryside, this is the perfect place to relax and enjoy a memorable stay. Spend your time hiking nearby or swimming in the private pool, all while admiring the scenery. Inside, you’ll find a fully-equipped open kitchen and dining area, and two living spaces – there’s plenty of room for a group of friends or a big family group. 

Terra Douro

There’s no price for guessing what the city of Porto is famous for. However, you may be surprised to find that this fortified wine begins its life far from the city, in the vineyards found upstream and on either side of the river Douro, and it’s here where you’ll find this eye-catching villa. Overlooking the slopes of Portugal’s wine region, this home boasts panoramic views that are almost impossible to tear your eyes away from. At sunset, make a beeline for the infinity pool that stretches out across the width of the house. There’s a second heated swimming pool to the side, best reached through the open-plan living and dining room. Take a dip beneath a starlit sky or sunbathe during the day. Floor-to-ceiling sliding doors and windows can be found from the kitchen to the three bedrooms, effortlessly bridging the indoors and outside. The best views can be found from the balcony on the first floor. Since this area has been granted UNESCO World Heritage status, you’ll find that there’s plenty of exploring and hiking to do. But there’s also fun to be had at home on a rainy afternoon – challenge the group to a championship of billiards and table football and may the best team win.

Dreaming of the Douro

Situated near one of Portugal’s oldest towns, this home offers peace and tranquillity. There are plenty of grounds to explore, including a pond (our favourite area), mature woodland and numerous paths leading into the countryside. Alternatively, simply unwind next to the private pool or admire the enchanting garden views from the veranda of the main house and the cottage.

This place is ideal for a large group of friends or family – there’s a charming separate cottage with a twin bedroom and kitchenette too, which provides a perfect space for those in search of a tad more privacy. If you love traditional interiors, then you’re in luck – from the grandfather clock in the dining room to the farmhouse-style kitchen and antique beds, this home is full of old-world character.

Nestled in a wonderful rural landscape, there’s plenty to see and do. Ponte de Lima, one of Portugal’s most historic towns, with its ornate squares, cobbled alleyways, and vast riverside Monday market, is just 13 kilometres away. The country’s only national park, the mountainous nature reserve of Peneda Geres National Park, is just a forty-minute drive away and offers prehistoric remains and walking trails, as well as golden eagles, deer and wolves – oh my.


White Water Lillies

Set amidst age-old vineyards, this stately 17th-century home invites you to experience the idyllic beauty of the Duoro countryside. And with mesmerising views across the river, this is the kind of location that will captivate you from the moment of arrival. 

Spread across two floors, the owners have styled this home to honour its unique heritage. Featuring an eclectic mix of antiques and art alongside contemporary comforts, every detail inspires a wonderful sense of intrigue and curiosity. And with two living rooms as well as an elegant dining room, this is the perfect setting to relax and indulge in life’s simple pleasures. So whether you’re sipping a glass of local wine by the fire, playing a game of cards or simply admiring the views, it's easy to settle in and make this space your own. 

Outside, you’ll find the garden transports you to an instant state of relaxation. From sunrise to sunset, this is an idyllic place to watch the sky transform whilst swimming in the heated pool or enjoying drinks on the terrace. And for an authentic taste of Portuguese living, you’ll find perfectly positioned tables for al fresco dining as well as a majestic wine cellar –  a striking setting for a celebratory dinner. 

The owners have also transformed one of the old farm buildings into a gym. With fitness machines sitting alongside old stone troughs (where grapes were once pressed), this might be one of the most unique workout locations we’ve ever seen. 

Days can be spent hiking and cycling across this beautiful countryside – the village of Mesao Frio is just a short drive away, while the beautiful city of Porto is less than an hour away. 

River of Sun

Whether you're visiting the Douro region to sample its produce, soak up some sun, journey into Porto or head away with the family, this Peso da Régua apartment is a real find. On the ground floor you'll find a characterful living room, dining area and kitchen, while upstairs features two bedrooms and two bathrooms with standalone showers to ease any morning traffic. This home also grants you access to a glimmering communal pool, proximity to several inspiring hiking routes, and unique views of the remarkable mountains and river running through them. You'll be around an hour and twenty minutes from the vibrant city of Porto, although a car is strongly recommended for getting around.
