Valley of the Wines

Valley of the Wines: Vila Real

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.
