Casa do Xisto is a beautiful Portugal villa near the magnificent Douro Valley

Casa do Xisto Overview
Casa do Xisto is a beautifully restored villa which has retained many traditional features. It owes its unique appearance to the schist stone it was built with.

On the large estate of Quinta de Mouraes this villa is well located near the famous Douro River. It has excellent outdoor facilities, including a large garden and two swimming pools including a children's pool which are shared with any guests staying in the other house on the estate.

Accommodation
Casa do Xisto has been beautifully decorated throughout. It is contemporary yet rustic and extremely relaxed and comfortable.

The villa's spacious living room is equipped with an original fireplace, a bar, a TV and internet connection. There is a wooden balcony running alongside the living room which leads to the dining room, a lovely room which seats eight people comfortably. The traditional kitchen, reached from the living room, is fully equipped offering all you need for your stay, including a dishwasher and washing machine.

The villa's terrace, which is the perfect place to enjoy the long summer evenings, has magnificent views over the villa's vast gardens.

The sleeping accommodation consists of two double bedrooms, one twin and one single bedroom. All rooms have an ensuite bathroom, telephone and central heating.

Larger parties can book further accommodation at Quinta de Mouraes, the main house on the estate.

Outside
The 2.5 hectare gardens of this villa are truly magnificent; the rhododendrons, azaleas and camellias give a wave of colour each season. The lake, home to a couple of swans, adds to the feeling of calm that this villa offers.

The villa has a large swimming pool and a shallow children's pool in the same area. Sun-loungers and parasols are available.

The gardens and the swimming pools are open to guests of this villa and any staying in the main house.

Location
Set in the heart of the Douro this villa is perfect for exploring this famous wine region, the only place in the world where Port wine can be made. This villa is only 20 mins drive from Vila Nova de Gaia, where most of the Port wine lodges are based. An extra 5 mins drive will take you to the beautiful city of Porto, Portugal's second largest city and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

This is also the perfect region to enjoy a cruise up the river. The Douro cruises offer a wonderful opportunity to enjoy some of the most breathtaking landscapes in Europe.
