Photos and Description of this Minho & Costa Verde holiday villa Peaceful Location near Minho River, Golf and Coast/beaches, 5 Mins to Spain.

The Villa is in the most Northern part of Portugal, Minho, which is hilly and beautifully green. A place to get away from stressful life, to relax and regain energy. Luxury and cosy interiors with central heating and lounge with fireplace make the villa a perfect place for a nice Christmans or New Year's eve holiday. The peaceful romantic gardens have many secret corners and in the orchard you can find organic fruit: apples, lemons, pears, cherries, orange, nuts etc. The pool garden relaxation area is secure and private with furniture, a parasol and BBQ. The patio runs the length of the building and the parking area is large enough for 4cars and is secure behind high steel gates (remote controlled). The local towns such as Vila Nova de Cerveira, Valença (fortified town), Caminha and Ponte de Lima are picturesque and interesting. Just a few minutes you can go from the river to coast, green countryside to historical towns, golf to surfing and to enjoy with nice food and wine.

Further details for this holiday villa rental in Minho & Costa Verde, Portugal

A drive into Spain for shopping and site-seeing is very easy from the new bridge at Vila Nova de Cerveira. Porto and Vigo offers some astonishing shopping malls with all the international brands you could hope for under one roof. Of course Porto (1 hour away) is the second capital of Portugal that is famous for its wines, culture and historic sites. Nightlife is very good at beach places such as Caminha and Baiona, during summer. During the year Vigo (30 min away) as a vibrant nightlife.

Excellent Holiday

Sandra & Andrew France
Review Submitted: August 4, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We have just spent a wonderfully relaxing 3 weeks at Vila Mea. The villa is fantastic - finished and equipped to a very high standard with everything you could possibly need. The garden is secluded with lots of places to relax, either by the pool or in the shade on one of the many benches placed around the garden.

This was our first visit to Portugal and we could not have picked a better area. There are shops and a bakers close by. Lovely countryside with lots of places to see. The coast is a short drive away and Spain 10 minutes.

The owners are friendly and extremely helpful, nothing was too much trouble for them. I would not hesitate in recommending Vila Mea to my friends.

A week by the river Minho

Bryony London
Review Submitted: September 22, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
The house is lovely and spacious and very well-equipped for self-catering. The garden and pool are great for relaxing and playing sports. We felt comfortable that it matched the description accurately. The house was clean and tidy and very well-looked after.

The surrounding region is very pretty and with a car, there are lovely towns and villages to explore along the river and the coast and the drive into Spain is quick and easy. The area does not seem to be very touristy which was just what we were looking for.

In terms of customer service, our dealings with the owners all went very smoothly from arranging the booking over email to the logistics of payment and the exchanging of keys for the property.

I would definitely recommend this property to other people who are looking for the opportunity to get away from their busy lives and explore the northern part of Portugal. The location of the property is convenient - the drive from Porto is very easy and well sign-posted.

family holiday with 5 children aged 13 to 19

we love portugal Netherlands
Review Submitted: September 3, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
We spend 10 days in the villa. The villa was clean and the owner provided good service. One day the swimmingpool turned green(alges) and the owner took care of it right away. The property was private and well equipped. The supermarket and restaurants were close to the villa. You will certainly need a car: the environment is very beautiful. The are several lovely beaches and they are not too crowded. We went to Porto, Braga, Viano do Castello and lots of other smalll villages. We would also recommend to visit Spain (coast, Vigo etc.) We had a lovely holiday with great weather, only one day of rain!

HOLIDAY TONIC

EDNA & NABHA LONDON
Review Submitted: September 3, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
We found this an ideal centrally place villa to explore this wonderful region of Portugal. The villa was large and roomy with ample amenities; having a very homely atmosphere for us to enjoy, and owners that were both obliging and helpful. We found we had a good choice of restaurants within walking distance and supermarkets just mintutes away by car. This was a portuguese tonic for us both and highly recommended for its charm and comfort.

A Great Villa in an Unspoilt Part of Portugal

Ajac Rugby, UK
Review Submitted: September 2, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
The Villa was everything described in the advertisement. Lots of space, good sized bedrooms, plenty of equipment. It is well maintained with a housekeeper and pool man who come in each week. The Villa is ideal for lazy days by the pool or expending a bit of energy playing table tennis. The local amenities provides all the basics and O Lavrador is a great restaurant just round the corner.
The Villa is also a great location to base yourself to head to the river, the beaches of Moledo and Caminha, the walled town of Valenca and across into Spain to Tui. There are many other places to visit within 20 minutes or so. The region has few tourists (mainly from Spain) but not enough to alter the character. This means the markets are generally well worth a visit.
With the owner providing lots of info and help, this completed all the ingredients required to make me happily recommend this villa and to plan a return trip soon.
