Ventozelo Hotel & Quinta
While growing up in the southern regions of Portugal, Algarve and Alentejo, for a long time the northern parts of Portugal were unknown to me. When I first visited Porto, I fell in love with its charm an mystical touch. It showed me another angle of my home country. The Douro region is the perfect vacation spot for wine and food lovers as well as for those seeking for quietness.
Quinta dos Murças
There is a place I'd really like to visit soon: Quinta dos Murças. Located on the right side of the river Douro, between Régua and Pinhão, Quinta dos Murças opens the doors of its house. It is now possible to experience the life at the Quinta, to get to know its diversity and stay in the Casa. Quinta dos Murças aims to offer you a warm, authentic and local experience.
