The space 17th Century farmhouse set in 25 acres of gardens, with superb views over the Douro River, reached by a lovely winding track through the grounds. The property, with its orange, lemon and olive groves, has been in our family for several generations and the many prints, sketches and photographs lining the walls tell their own history of the Port Wine region of Portugal. The property is 70km from the coast and Porto (home of the Port Wine cellars and with its town centre designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site). The property is an hour drive from Porto City and close to Port Wine Estates. It is served by the Douro Train Line. There are lovely restaurants and well-stocked supermarkets close by. This is the perfect place for nature lovers, writers, historians, wine lovers and everybody that needs a break from hectic city life! The owner lives on the property . We provide assistance during your entire stay . Quinta do Loureiro is situated in a stunning location in the Douro valley. Because of its fairly remote location – although it is only about an hour’s drive to Porto – we have always advised guests to hire a car. Recently however, we have realised that some people might like the option to use taxis, or a combination of public transport and taxis. We offer a taxi service for all the basic needs during the stay. For a cost of 750 euros at a 7 nights stay min. we offer a taxi van service up to 8 people including transfers , one day wine tour , local rest. trips , shopping trips at local supermarkets , train st. trips . This way no need to negotiate unfamiliar roads and directions to reach the house. Do not hire a car we take care of you. Let us know . Near the property and in the local area, there are lovely restaurants with reasonably priced menus and shops for all your essential shopping. The check-in and check out times can be flexibles. When you arrive Francisco will be waiting for you to give you the keys and the all details that you need to know for the stay . He will happily provide assistance during your entire stay . Other things to note My pleasure is to make sure that my guests have the best possible holiday according to their interests or focus so : The boat cruises from Régua to Pinhão and back (with optional lunch on board) are highly recommended . The house is served by train, with a station close the house / Mosteiro . I recommend a train trip to Régua or Pinhão or further to admire all of the Douro Valley. All the information is available at the house, or just ask the owner .
