Quinta do Paço Cottage, situated in Vila Marim, traces its history into the 15th century. The cottage is conveniently located in the heart of Douro Valley on the mountain top between Mesão Frio and Régua. It has amazing panoramic views overlooking the Douro river to its front and to the rugged mountain peaks of Marão behind. The cottage is rich with culture and romanticism. As you enter the steel gates and step over the stone facades overwhelming sensations arise. A feeling of rustic traditional Portuguese design, mixed with modern style, give this self catering quinta a very special touch.

The cottage, surrounded by vineyards, was remodeled and now features a kitchen, dining room, bathroom, queen sized bedroom, two large patios, swimming pool, gardens and BBQ. What says more about vacation than this? Come sit on the porch with a glass of port wine and ponder about life.

If you like more activity, there are plenty of hikes, cruises, wine tasting, local cuisine, monasteries, medieval villages and more only a short distance away.
