No Coração do Douro, Entre o Pinhão e Favaios, um Espaço de paz e Serenidade

For generations in the family, Quinta da Salgueira is situated in the heart of the Douro Valley, in the Pinhão River valley, an ideal location for a thorough exploration of this entire region and northern Portugal. We have restored the old stable, located next to the former caretaker's house (now also a short-term rental), and transformed it into a charming little apartment where we are eager to welcome you. We hope to offer you everything a guest could expect and will do our best to satisfy you. We would be delighted to host you for three nights, but we encourage you to stay a few more to enjoy the peace and charm of our region. Here you can see and hear the birds! And the silence, too! And from our home, you can explore much of northern Portugal. We are served by good roads, and within a 100km radius you will find some of the most beautiful cities in Portugal (Porto, Braga, Guimarães – where it all began – Barcelos, Chaves, Bragança, Vila Real and Viseu).<br> We have a swimming pool with a magnificent view, and at the end of the afternoon, when you're relaxing by the pool, it's not uncommon for swallows to dive in quick, acrobatic flights to come and drink alongside us.<br><br> Upon request, we can provide breakfast (milk, coffee or tea, yogurt, regional bread, butter and homemade jam, juice, homemade cake and roll – 9 euros/person).<br><br> Looking forward to seeing you soon.<br> Through Quinta da Salgueira<br> Francisco and Cristina B de Figueiredo<br> PS: The access road to the house is not paved; it's an old path, so please drive slowly and carefully.
