In the lush heart of Minho, this exclusive property offers a truly refined accommodation experience, perfect for those seeking comfort, privacy, and elegance in every detail. Comprising two distinct houses — S. Salvador and S. Silvestre — this retreat is ideal for both large groups and more intimate stays, comfortably accommodating up to 16 guests.
The main house, S. Salvador, combines architectural charm with modern accessibility. With space for up to 12 guests, it features six spacious suites, each with its own private bathroom and independent air conditioning. One of the suites, along with its bathroom, is fully adapted for guests with reduced mobility, offering support bars and smooth access throughout. The living room invites relaxation, with abundant natural light and a cozy fireplace perfect for cooler days. The fully equipped kitchen is designed for family-style meals or pure culinary pleasure, and the house also includes a laundry room. For added convenience, there are two additional guest WCs throughout the house.
The more intimate S. Silvestre house welcomes up to 4 guests in two elegant suites, each also with a private bathroom and air conditioning in every room. Its warm ambiance and fully equipped kitchen make this a true sanctuary within the retreat.
Outdoors, the property promises unforgettable moments. The infinity-edge pool, surrounded by a spacious terrace, invites long sunbathing sessions. There is also a barbecue area with outdoor dining space, a children’s playground, a beautifully maintained garden, and a charming waterfall. These areas have been thoughtfully designed to ensure accessibility and inclusivity for all guests.
An elegant events hall is also available and is perfect for special celebrations, family gatherings, or professional meetings, complete with an industrial kitchen*. The property also offers private parking and high-speed Wi-Fi throughout all areas.
With eight en-suite bedrooms, three additional guest WCs, air conditioning in every room, and an atmosphere where luxury meets functionality, this property is more than just accommodation — it's a destination in itself.
Ideally located, just a few steps away is the renowned Rio Lima Restaurant, which also provides direct catering to the house. Only 1.5 km away, you’ll find Louro, a gourmet restaurant led by a French chef and featured in the Michelin Guide. Also nearby is the acclaimed Camelo Restaurant, an iconic reference in Minho cuisine.
