Villa 299 - Caminha

Contemporary style villa set in an elevated position that gives beautiful views of Modelo. Set within easy reach of the charming coastal roman town of Caminha with its interesting streets and squares lined with a tempting choice of restaurants, cafes and shops, this spot is a perfect retreat for families.

Extremely easy to reach (only 60 minute drive from Porto international airport or from Vigo - Spain - airport and only a 50 minute drive from Porto international airport) this villa is in an absolutely central position: only 2 kms away (15 minute walk) from Moledo sandy beaches. From the train station you can travel to Vigo in Spain or south to Viana do Castelo historic centre. This Villa is located 2,5 kms from the old roman town of Caminha (with various good quality restaurants, cafes, bars, lively promenades and open air esplanades around the Minho river's waterfront) and 30 kms from the delightful old historic town of Viana do Castelo, famous for its ancient monuments and long sandy beaches. Basic facilities such as a minimarket, shops, restaurants, etc, can be found within a 20 minute walk.

The sands of Vila Praia de Âncora (10 minutes away from the villa) extend from the fishing port over to the Âncora river which reaches the coast here after its 15 kilometre descent through the Serra de Arga hills, an attractive natural environment, which features some good walking conditions. This enormous beach experiences some strong Atlantic waves which means high quality surfing. This town is also famous for the variety of good seafood and fresh fish restaurants.

Nowadays, Caminha enjoys much more friendly relations with its neighbour and there is a daily ferry-boat linking the two banks of the river. Standing on a tiny island in the middle of the estuary are the ruins of the fort of Ínsua, built to defend the entrance to the river in the fifteenth century. There are other several sandy beaches within a short drive.
