A Farmhouse with Finesse

• 12 guests

• 6 bedrooms

Marinhas, Esposende

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.

Regrowth & Rebirth

• 16 guests

• 9 bedrooms

Mondrões, Vila Real

Sitting close to the point at which Trás-os-Montes crosses over to the famed Alto-Douro wine region, this nine-hectare oak forest was abandoned in the middle of the 20th century and mother nature allowed to run her course. That is until 2010 when the farmhouse hidden away on the site was almost completely reconstructed into this incredible holiday home.

Twigs at Twilight

• 8 guests

• 4 bedrooms

Âncora, Caminha

Portugal may be a holiday hotspot for those seeking sun, sea and sand, but if solitude also features highly on your list, this home might just be for you. The Minho region is less visited than Porto or Lisbon, but no less beautiful, and Twigs at Twilight perfectly embodies its rural elegance.
