Across the river from the historic port town of Viana do Castelo, the house is close to the beaches of the Costa Verde, as Moledo and Camarido and within easy reach of the Peneda-Gerês National Park, the attractive old towns and villages and rural byways of the Upper Minho region, famous for its folklore, cuisine and Vinho Verde, and with access to the hill range of Serra de Arga. Porto and Braga are both within 60 kilometres of so, and the Spanish border - for trips to Vigo or Santiago de Compostela - is just 25km away. A new motorway network has brought everything closer, but the narrow winding mountain lanes of the region make for great exploring.
