About this home
Set across two floors and a basement, this manor house holds seven bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, sleeping up to fourteen. The main floor opens onto a bright living room and a fully equipped kitchen with a proper dining table for long meals. Below, a games room with a pool table and foosball table keeps evenings going, alongside a garden, outdoor pool and covered parking.
The house sits in Barroselas, a village of quiet streets and local shops a few minutes from Viana do Castelo. Around it, the Minho countryside unfolds in green hills and valleys, with horseback riding available nearby and small museums to visit further afield.
Mornings start on the terrace, coffee in hand, looking out over garden and fields. Afternoons drift between the pool and the shade of the garden; evenings gather the group indoors for a home-cooked meal, then downstairs for a round of pool or foosball before the fire is lit.

"What a beautiful place!!!! The outdoor swimming pool was a dream…even though it was winter, we took a swim watching the sunset. The house is spacious and perfectly mantained. It was decorated for Xmas and made us feel right at home. I will come back anytime of the year!! Fantastic place and wonderful stay"

"Una casa muy amplia en un recinto excepcional. Tenía buena calefacción, todo muy limpio y ordenado. Una atención cuidada, todo muy bien. Sin duda, nos gustaría repetir. Si hubiera que destacar alguna mejora, lo único que han dejado solamente unas llaves de acceso y mando para la verja, para una casa en la que nos alojamos 14 personas. Si se llegaba de forma escalonada era algo difícil de gestionar."

"The home is perfect for groups or families. There’s something to do for everyone, there’s a billiards table, card games table and fuzzball table in the basement. The dining area is huge. There’s a pool, table tennis court, mini golf and hot tub outside. The instructions from the host is easy to follow. The response time is fast. The location is quiet, relaxing and it makes you feel at home. There’s a bathroom for every bedroom. The house and location is amazing."

"Lovely family house with amazing views. We have thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful pool area, tenniscourt.and outside bbq. A car is a must but less than 10 min drive from supermarket and approx 20 minutes from Viana de Castello, a nice old town with good restaurants, shops etc. Our teens really enjoyed the gameroom (Pooltafel etc.). The surroundings are beautiful and the house is not far from Penada-Geres."
