Nestled in the Costa Verde countryside, this stylish villa offers guests a tranquil retreat while still being just a short drive (4 km) of the port town of Caminha. Wake up to breathtaking views of the sea and Minho River, before getting up close and personal with the water yourself on a visit to the Praia de Moledo and Foz do Minho beaches. This home boasts floor-to-ceiling windows that offer a seamless transition between these inside spaces and the outside amenities, namely the walled garden with private swimming pool and bean bags perfect for sunbathing.

Moredaria

With commanding views of the rural Douro and an infinity pool, this expansive villa is a dream holiday destination. Inside, multiple balconies and windows mean those stunning views are always in sight. 

The home has five bedrooms, each with their own bathroom, a dedicated kid’s pool and gardens – it's the ideal base for families travelling together. The interior is bright and offers plenty of space to relax and enjoy communal meals and movie nights.  

Days begin with pasteis de nata on the terrace – the hosts drop off fresh baked goods for breakfast every morning – followed by lazy hours by the pool with a book in hand. If you can prise yourself away from your lounger, the surrounding area is fine hiking territory. 

Sunsets here are show-stoppers, so make sure you’re back in time for a cold glass on the terrace as the sky turns every shade of orange and red. Round off with a night-time dip in the pool under a sky full of stars to make the most of every minute in this Portuguese oasis.

Pilot Star

Set in the heart of the spectacular Douro Valley, this 17th-century estate boasts sweeping river views. The vibe here is country living with a touch of grandeur - think exposed brick walls, four-poster beds, chandeliers and shutters. And with rooms spread across the main house and four charming outbuildings, there's plenty of space for up to sixteen guests. Spend your days lounging by the private pool or wandering the landscaped gardens, then choose between cruising the Douro River or sampling the region’s finest wines at one of the surrounding vineyards. This is slow living at its very best.

Vines of the Douro

This villa in Moldes, Arouca is the ideal spot for a proper getaway with family and friends. You'll have privacy and seclusion here, with stunning mountain views from the private pool and outdoor seating area. The home can only be reached by car, so you'll want to hire one for your trip, but it's well worth it. You'll be exploring the area in no time, including the spectacular hiking trails of Arouca Geopark and the town's local restaurants. Indoors, every bedroom enjoys its own en-suite, and while the kitchen is on the smaller side, you'll have everything you need for whipping up delicious dinners.

The Green Tide

Located in the small village of Gouvães do Douro, this amazing home overlooks the Douro valley taking in the vineyards and olive groves. Whether you’re taking a dip in the private swimming pool, lounging in the sun on the terrace’s day bed, or even peering out of the large windows from inside the home, the position of this villa offers some truly stunning vistas to enjoy. 

Start your relaxing days here with the breakfast that has been prepared for you. We would love to enjoy our coffee alfresco on sunny days, to enjoy the morning breeze and get a first glimpse of the valley each day.  Then, get competitive and let off some steam in the games room before lunch. 

A trip to the Duoro wine region of Portugal wouldn’t be complete without the wine, so why not treat yourself to a wine tasting which can be reached in as little as thirteen minutes by car? Select your favourite wines to take home and pair with a delicious dinner that can be cooked alfresco on the barbecue. Then, enjoy the meal outside too so you can admire the sun setting over this wonderful panorama as you sip your wine.

Valley of the Wines

Settle into this cosy wooden cabin on the Minho coastline, ideal for a long weekend or couple's retreat. The large communal pool and children's play area offer entertainment and a refreshing break from the Portuguese sun, while the private patio boasts room to dine alfresco and work on that perfect tan. While space indoors is limited, the kitchen is fully equipped and one guest can be accommodated on the sofa bed. We think it's worth having a car here for getting around with ease, but if you don't drive, fear not. The centre of Fão is a breezy stroll away, while the golden sands of Praia de Ofir are easily reachable on foot.

Floral Field

If you love to make an entrance, you'll be smitten with this home perched upon the banks of the River Douro. You are, of course, more than welcome to arrive by car, but there's also the option to travel by boat from Pinhão or a local farm and alight at the private pier.

Whatever means you use to show up, you're sure to be instantly wowed by this remarkable address, one of two neighbouring homes that date back to 1876. While the exterior is traditional in appearance, the interior has been thoroughly modernised – and the home even comes with its own chef. 

When it comes to days out, you'll have an on-site villa concierge to help arrange excursions and ensure you make the most of the UNESCO World Heritage Site surrounding this home. The valley is famous for port production, so visiting a winery for a tasting is a must – but there are also boat trips and hiking routes to keep you entertained.

Current Affairs

These views will take your breath away. Overlooking the Douro River, its bridges, and the rolling hills beyond, this home is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature – and it's only about an hour or so from Porto. Outside, you'll have a private pool, hot tub, and river-facing terrace to enjoy. Indoors, modern design is accented by the panoramas. With a collection of en-suite bedrooms to choose from, you'll also be able to enjoy some privacy. And the best part? Breakfast and daily cleaning are included.


Pearl of the Valley

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

Make the most of the Afife coastline from this luxurious villa and ensure the holiday of a lifetime. Nestled in a small village, and just a short drive from the jewel of Costa Verse, Viana do Castelo, this stunning villa sits in the verdant hills above the Atlantic Ocean. It’s a short distance to the powdery sands of Praia de Afife, the border between Spain’s Galicia, the adventure-packed rivers of the Rio Lima estuary and the countryside hiking trails in the Lima valley.

Inside, the space is dominated by an expansive, wooden-beamed living area where you’ll find an elegant dining table for sharing bacalhau fish stew dinners and a contemporary lounge boasting ambient lighting for cosy nights in sharing aperitifs. The sleek kitchen has plenty of prep space, courtesy of a glossy island, which keeps the space social. A second dining room leads off the kitchen and out onto the patio – we’ll be honest, this one’s our favourite – perfect for alfresco dinners together under pink-hued sunsets.

Staying outside, there are plenty of spaces for every member to unwind. The patio is decked out with lounge chairs, perfect for soaking up the sun before plunging into the pristine pool for a cooling dip. We have to say we think the garden is the ideal spot to begin mornings over fresh coffee and locally bought pastéis de nata and to end evenings with caipirinha cocktails under the starlit sky. 

Soul of Afife 

This carefully renovated country house, where old and new seamlessly combine, provides you with everything you could need for an unforgettable stay in this picturesque part of northern Portugal. 

Inside, you'll find a calming palette of neutral tones, accented with restored original stone features, while outside a range of inviting seating areas put together with comfort in mind await you. Then of course there is that lovely lawn (perfect for a picnic or for any little ones to play on), the beautiful swimming pool that's simply made for sun-drenched afternoons, and even a mini football pitch and volleyball net for those who feel like getting active. If you fancy firing up some more friendly competition, there's also table tennis that's sure to get everyone involved. 

For something extra special, you can arrange cooking classes at the home – ideal if you would like to try your hand at replicating Portuguese specialties (and the well-equipped kitchen or typical outdoor churrasco provides the perfect place to do so). As evening turns to night, grab a chilled glass of regional Vinho Verde, head out to the terrace and listen to the sounds of the cicadas as the mouthwatering cooking smells begin to fill the air.

Red Stone

With terracotta shingles, and painted mellow orange, this beautiful villa in the Portuguese countryside doesn’t just look pretty against the bright green surroundings, but the hilltop location gives it bragging rights to some of the most incredible views of the Lima Valley.

Needless to say then, this home is the perfect retreat for families looking for a little seclusion. Bask in the peace and quiet as you wander the grounds amidst trees, feeling the lush grass between your toes as you go in search of the shaded vegetable garden. Spend entire mornings simply soaking up the sun poolside and when it gets a bit hot, slip into the crystal clear waters for a lazy paddle. 

Indoors you’ll find a combination of rustic comfort and more modern touches. The small breakfast nook by the large kitchen window is another real highlight of the home  – sit there first thing in the morning sipping your coffee to a scenic backdrop. 

Enjoy family movie nights in the cinema or sneak away to the sauna for a bit of alone time. Dine alfresco on the balcony or socialise around the barbecue whilst the kids expend their energy running around the garden. 

Drive fifteen minutes to the historic town of Ponte de Lima where you can shop, top up supplies, eat at one of the local restaurants and wander the narrow streets until you find a bar servicing delicious vinho verde.
