Beautiful river house set over 2 floors in a peaceful setting with stunning views of the river Douro. The villa was designed by the daughter of the famous British designer David Mellor with each detail carefully chosen. It has an airy modern yet luxury feel with large bright windows, natural wood floors and spacious bedrooms with large comfortable beds and pristine linen.
The top floor has views of the Douro river and a large wooden table perfect family dinners or cooked for you by our private chef and a fully equipped kitchen. The villa is in a quiet residential riverside neighbourhood. The immediate surroundings are peaceful and residential, and the nearby village is a traditional Portuguese community with local cafés, a bakery and supermarket. The riverside area has seen significant redevelopment in recent years and is becoming one of Gaia’s most desirable locations.
You can walk into Porto along the stunning river walk or Uber into the center in just 10-15 minutes. Supermarkets are nearby with everything you need and it's 3 minutes to the highway in case you want to explore the Douro Valley or other cities. We offer trips to the Douro for wine tasting, river trips on a Luxury boat and a private chef at the house.
Important notes:
There is a city/tourist tax to pay at checkin of €3.00 per adult per night. Please note that the villa is located in a quiet residential neighbourhood with neighbouring homes nearby.
