About this property

A Casinha, Farmhouse in Minho Quinta

A Casinha is a serene countryside retreat in a traditional Minho Quinta. Surrounded by vineyards, gardens, and the rhythm of rural life, it offers an elegant 2-bedroom home - ideal for guests seeking peace, authenticity, and a slower pace. Thoughtfully restored with natural materials, the home blends tradition with comfort. Enjoy the saltwater pool, outdoor dining, and the charm of nature in a space designed for mindful, eco-conscious living.

The house includes:

- 2 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms
- A cozy living area with natural light and garden views
- A fully equipped kitchen for slow, mindful meals

Guests also enjoy access to:
- A saltwater swimming pool and sunbathing area
- Expansive gardens, orchards, and vineyards
- Outdoor dining spaces and shaded corners for reading or relaxing
- Friendly resident chickens and ducks that add charm to the estate

The property also includes a historic manor house where the owners live, ensuring a warm welcome and discreet support throughout your stay.

Guests have full access to the house and all shared outdoor areas, including the pool, gardens, orchards, and vineyard paths. Private parking is available on-site.

The property is ideal for couples, families, or friends looking for a peaceful, nature-connected escape.

Sustainability is at the heart of A Casinha: we use local materials, promote biodiversity, and encourage mindful living.

Located in the quiet village of Fontão, the estate is just:
- 6 minutes from Ponte de Lima
- 12 minutes from Viana do Castelo
- Close to the Lima River and scenic walking trails

While A Casinha is a peaceful retreat, please note that during summer weekends, a nearby venue may occasionally host events. You might hear music in the afternoon or, more rarely, fireworks at night. These moments are infrequent but worth mentioning for guests who are especially sensitive to sound. Most guests still find the overall atmosphere calm and restorative.
