Retreat House - Manor House
Description
Retreat House is located in the heart of Ribeira Lima, in the village of Fontão, one of the most picturesque villages of the Minho region in northern Portugal. Ponte de Lima, the oldest Portuguese town stands 7km away and Viana do Castle, where long white sand beaches contrast with slopes of vineyards and farms, is only at 15 km distance. Manor Retreat House is part of a 10ha farm exhibiting the typical architecture of the region. It is surrounded by fields and trees and encircled by stone walls, providing great privacy and a sense of peace The house stands amid a highly forested area surrounded by the imposing Sierra D´Arga and the plain of Rio Lima, combining a beauty worthy of a romantic painting with a privileged location. A clear water brook crosses the farm, inviting to a bath or trout fi shing. The land is intended for corn plantation for animal feed purposes. After crossing the emblazoned entrance gate, we come to an open and ample yard that leads to a large stone staircase and the manor’s main entrance. Next to the main façade of the house there are various farm premises amongst which an old cellar and barn that lead to a monumental old granite threshing fl oor, with 4000 meters, considered to be the largest in Portugal. The house has a beautiful garden and pool, which face a dazzling scenario of mountain ridges where the blue color of the sky mingles with the green of the trees, and the peaceful silent environment invites to dreaming and introspection, away from daily stress.
