Casa Sao Cristovao Overview
This beautifully restored house is situated on the Quinta da Portela farming estate. This large walled estate has extensive vineyards and also grows kiwi fruit.

The Quinta is located in the Minho region of Northern Portugal which is an area of river valleys, lush green terraced hillsides of vines and maize, dense forests of pine and eucalyptus, and granite mountains.

Eight kilometres to the west of the property is the Atlantic Ocean with golden beaches and crashing breakers, a paradise for surfers and windsurfers.

The historic old port of Viana do Castelo is 10 kilometres to the North. This beautiful town has narrow cobbled streets of balconied houses, a marina, and lots of good, inexpensive restaurants in which to sample typical Minho cuisine together with the local Vinho Verde wine.

Overlooking the town, on a forested hill, is the church of Santa Luzia. The view from this church has been described as "one of the most spectacular in the world".
