Manor Houses in Portugal, Minho, Porto, Douro, Beiras, Lisbon, Alentejo and the Algarve

MINHO ACCOMMODATION IN PORTO AND THE DOURO REGION OF PORTUGAL.

Porto is the second city in Portugal and sits at the mouth of the Douro River. On the south bank are the Port Wine 'caves' where the blending of the famous Port Wine takes place.

The wine is produced in the terraced vineyards of the upper reaches of the river around Regua and Pinhao.

In years gone by, it used to be transported downstream on a dangerous journey by boat. Today the river has a series of dams and cruise vessels are able to cross the breadth of Portugal.

Guimaraes which used to be the capital city is in the Minho region and Braga which is the ‘religious’ capital of Portugal.

This beautiful area has Pousadas and Traditional Hotels and is rich in Manor Houses and the grape producing Quintas of the Douro River which offer self catering accommodation in modernised Cottages and Villas.

These pages also list Hotels & Apartments in this region.
