Set amid the rolling hills and terraced vineyards of Portugal’s Douro Valley, Casa Reserva is a beautifully restored stone villa designed for laid-back living with a contemporary twist. This two-bedroom retreat sleeps up to four adults and two children, making it ideal for a family getaway or a pair of couples looking to unwind in peaceful, rural surroundings.
Inside, the interiors strike a balance between heritage charm and modern comfort: timber beams, whitewashed walls, and soft, natural tones create a calming atmosphere, while bifold doors in the dining area open seamlessly onto the garden. Both bedrooms are en suite with king-size beds. One includes a sofa bed, offering flexible sleeping arrangements for younger guests.
Outdoors, the private pool area invites long afternoons in the sun, while the shaded garden and al fresco dining space are perfect for relaxed meals after a day of exploring. With Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a fully equipped kitchen, and secure parking, Casa Reserva combines simplicity and convenience with understated style.
Whether you’re sipping local wine on the terrace or exploring the valley’s UNESCO-listed landscapes, Casa Reserva is a serene base for your Douro discovery.
Casa Reserva is tucked into the quiet village of Fandinhães, a traditional Portuguese hamlet nestled in the hills just five kilometres from the Douro River. Surrounded by olive groves, vineyards, and forested slopes, the villa offers a tranquil escape with a strong sense of local life. Though peaceful, the location is far from isolated; guests are only an hour’s drive from Douro, where river cruises, wine estates, and cultural sites await.
This spot is ideal for guests seeking to strike a balance between rural relaxation and easy access to the region’s highlights. Scenic walking trails, rustic eateries, and family-run wineries dot the surrounding landscape, while the river itself offers opportunities for kayaking, picnicking, or simply soaking in the views. For those eager to explore further, towns like Peso da Régua and Pinhão make for rewarding day trips.
