Villa 237 Granite Stone Cottage w/ Private Pool

Set in an elevated position and surrounded by large grounds, this typical "Minhota" granite stone house is the result of a careful renovation project. A unique retreat which blends superb views and unspoilt landscape with all the comfort while being in the perfect position to explore the countryside and delightful roman town of Ponte de Lima.



The interior has been comfortably furnished creating a lovely atmosphere. The living room opens onto the pool area and barbecue terrace with table and chairs perfect for alfresco meals.
