For groups and families

Room for everyone, without sharing the house

Our purpose goes beyond conventional hospitality; We seek to provide a haven of well-being where high quality and Minho authenticity merge to create a deeply immersive experience. Our commitment is based on delivering a superior standard of comfort, where rural identity is reinterpreted with sophistication to welcome those who value details, disconnection and rigor. Those who book keep the whole house — the four bedrooms, the living room, the kitchen and all the outdoor space — and do not share it with other guests.

We believe that true value lies in the essence of the place. That is why we encourage a complete immersion in nature and the local area, inviting our visitors to slow down and take in the organic rhythm of our estate.

To leave the door and be in the vineyard. Sit down at the end of the day with a glass of our production. Falling asleep in absolute silence. That is the experience. Outside, the pool and barbecue terrace are the centre of the day: an unhurried lunch, the kids in the water, a glass of the estate's wine in the late afternoon. The vineyard begins at the door.

The wine tasting was excellent! The wines were marvellous, and the charcuterie platter served alongside them was delicious, generously laid out with sausages, cheeses, bread and fresh grapes. We loved being able to take the tour and the tasting at our own pace. Unlike the rushed, guided tours we’re used to at big brands, here we were able to enjoy every moment without any pressure. We felt very welcome from start to finish.

The house was amazing—even better than in the photos. Very clean, modern and with everything we needed. The four bedrooms were more than enough for the five of us to spread out and have our own privacy. What’s more, the outdoor area is great for enjoying a glass of wine and taking in the wonderful scenery. We would have loved to stay another night and take part in a wine tasting with them, but we simply didn’t have the time. Albertina was incredibly helpful and lovely. We hope to return soon.

The location is perfect for relaxing and unwinding, as it’s set in the middle of a vineyard. The house is fully equipped and the décor is very tasteful. The photos are a true reflection of the accommodation. We had a brilliant time and would do it again in a heartbeat. The hosts are lovely too.
