Gouvães do Douro, Sabrosa
It's hard not to pinch yourself as you gaze down from The Scarlet Letter, at the charming vineyards and olive groves on the hill slopes of Douro Valley. There are several nooks to hang out by the pool and we especially love the quirky classroom setting in the gaming room that nudges towards the home's past as a school for kids.

Anreade, Resende
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.

Esposende, Portugal
We're utterly in love with this reimagined farmhouse-style property located just outside of the idyllic old fishing village of Esposende. From its sunny yellow facade complete with quaint panelled windows and traditional terracotta roof tiles to its elegant interior that retains many of its original, rustic features – not to mention the beautiful modern step-down swimming pool – we think it offers something truly unique and special for your holiday in this often-overlooked part of Portugal.
