XL House for large groups surrounded by nature, with quick access to Parc Gerês

Large Exceptional Villa between Culture & Nature – Close to Gerês & City – Ideal Long Stays

Escape to the heart of Northern Portugal: The perfect balance between cultural effervescence and reconnection with nature.

Welcome to our spacious 5-bedroom family villa, a true haven of peace designed to comfortably accommodate large groups, large families or tribes of friends. Nestled in a particularly quiet and peaceful residential area, our property offers you a privileged and breathtaking view of the majestic sanctuary of Bom Jesus do Monte, an UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Here, you don't have to choose between a cultural holiday and a stay in the countryside. You get the best of both worlds: easy and ultra-fast access to the historic city centre to soak up the local culture, while being at the gateway to the most beautiful natural treasures of the region, including the famous Peneda-Gerês National Park.

We favour medium and long-term stays. It is the ideal address to put down your suitcases for several weeks, telework in an idyllic setting, or simply take the time to experience an unforgettable summer at the Portuguese pace.PGJyPg
