Casa de Sobrado Countryside House with saltwater pool, garden, and barbecue.

Spacious countryside villa for up to 8 people, featuring a private saltwater pool, a lush lawn, and a barbecue for long, leisurely outdoor meals. A century-old retreat of comfort and peace in the nature of Vila Verde, in the village of Barros, where you can relax without a rush. Just minutes from Braga and at the doorstep of the Peneda-Gerês National Park, it is the perfect starting point to explore Northern Portugal, while always remaining the safe haven you’ll want to return to at the end of the day.

Architecture & Design: A Dialogue Between Eras

The house is the result of a meticulous architectural renovation that preserved the original character of a traditional Minho farmhouse in Northern Portugal, where nature is at its most exuberant.

Designed for those who value exclusivity, our home offers the perfect balance between restorative tranquility and contemporary comfort. The interiors honor tradition, merging the charm of granite stone walls with a minimalist and cozy design.

We believe that time is today’s most valuable resource. At Casa de Sobrado Countryside House, the clock follows a different rhythm. We invite you to turn off your notifications and reconnect with what truly matters: the luxury of slow living – inhabiting every corner designed for your rest and rediscovering the pleasure of unhurried time.

The Experience: Intentional Living
Every space was designed with a clear purpose for your stay:

- Outdoor Well-being (To Experience): Your private oasis. The saltwater pool—eco-friendly and gentler on your skin—overlooks the lush green mountain landscape, offering the ultimate invitation to refresh under the Minho sun. From the garden to the bedrooms, every area is a call to relaxation.

- Connection & Flavors (To Share): Social spaces designed for memorable, slow-paced meals. The porch and patio are the perfect stages for al fresco dining and stargazing. For cooler days, enjoy the indoor dining area. Features include a fully equipped open-plan kitchen (Nespresso Neo included), garden barbecue, and a spacious living room with a 50” Smart TV. Comfort is guaranteed in all seasons with a wood-burning stove, air conditioning on the ground floor, an indoor sunroom (winter garden), and a panoramic balcony.

- The Sanctuary of Rest (To Disconnect): The first floor is our quiet zone. A sanctuary for disconnection where rest is ensured by 2 King Size beds, 2 twin beds, and premium high-quality linens. With 3 spacious bedrooms, the villa accommodates up to 8 guests (including 2 extra beds). Bathrooms: 1 full en-suite with bathtub, 1 full with shower, and 1 guest toilet on the ground floor.

- Art & Identity (To Contemplate): Features the exclusive "Robin" mural by artist NAPS, symbolizing the deep connection between Casa de Sobrado and the rural world. Be guided by original artworks and illustrations on the walls, and by windows that frame the green mountain landscape like living paintings. Here, your gaze has room to stretch.

- Convenience: Private parking for 2 vehicles.
