Location: Povoa de Lanhoso (Minho region) / Sleeps up to 4 people / 2 bedrooms + 2 bathrooms

A former water mill situated in a wonderful position on one part of a 2.5 acre farm. There is not another house to be seen in the immediate neighbourhood. The mill dates from the XVIII century and was recently converted into a delightful holiday villa ideal for small parties. Surrounded by eucalyptus, this cottage has been tastefully decorated to the highest standards and one of the main features is the water course along and under the mill which has also been preserved in order to maintain the original atmosphere. The newly built pool is set in the lawned well kept garden. The quiet, countryside location of the cottage makes it the perfect choice for those wanting peace, relaxation and luxury.

The village of Povoa de Lanhoso about 7 kilometres away has restaurants, shops and a large weekly market. A visit should also be made to the 11th century castle.
