About this country house rental
For so many years in the family, Quinta da Salgueira, a typical farm from the world's oldest wine appellation, is located in the heart of the Douro, at river Pinhão Valley, the ideal place to consistently explore the north of Portugal, namely the Douro Valley. We refurbished the old stable into a little charming house, close to the old caretaker's cottage, and we would like to accommodate you as our guest. We hope to give you everything a guest can expect and we will do our best in such a way that you will have a pleasant stay. We will be very pleased on having you with us for three nights, but we think, and we insist with you, that it would be better spending some more time with us, as it is the better way to enjoy the peace and the charming of our Douro. Here, in addition to vineyards, you can hear birds singing and the sound of silence! And, starting in our/your home, you can visit most part of the north of Portugal. We are served by very good roads and till 100Km around you can find, and visit, several of the most beautiful Portuguese towns (Oporto, Braga, Guimarães – where Portugal is born – Barcelos, Chaves, Bragança, Vila Real and Viseu.
From our swimming pool you can enjoy a magnificent landscape and, at the end of the day, when we are in the quiet of the swimming pool, very often swallows dive to drink water near us.
On demand, we can provide you breakfast (milk, coffee or tea, iogurth, typical bread, butter and homemade jam, sweet and salty cakes – 9 euro each).
We look forward to seeing you soon!

ps the road to the cottage is not paved, it's a old path, so make sure you drive slowly and with care

What a wonderful escape after spending a few days in Porto. The road to this remote location is an adventure, if you are up for it! Once you arrive, the view is breathtaking and the authentic countryside quinta experience begins. We enjoyed all the outdoor spaces and gardens, and moved up to the pool area to lengthen sunset watching. The property is resort-like in its details and each day my appreciation for all these features grew. The overall experience was restorative.The rental is clean and comfortable. The charming kitchen is small but had all essentials although we didn't cook much! The bathroom is updated and spacious. The bedroom is in the loft and there was great storage for our luggage. Wifi worked flawlessly. This is a great location to explore the Douro region. We did daily road trips to towns like Pinhao, Peso da Regua, and Lamego. Getting lost in the vineyards was a wonderful experience. And don't forget tastings at other quintas: port, wine and olive oil.Thank you to Francesco for hosting and spoiling us. I won't give away all the details, but we loved the amazing local bread from Favaios every morning! (Visit the Bread and Wine Museum there to better appreciate these local delicacies.) His suggestions for dining and things to do were appreciated and helpful. His love for this quinta is now shared. This is a special place!
