The Viana do Castelo District occupies the far northwest corner of Portugal, between the Atlantic, the Lima Valley, and the Spanish border marked by the Minho River. Come here for wild beaches, granite villages, and Alvarinho vineyards, away from the summer crowds.

Hiking, swimming, and tasting vinho verde

Climb up to the Santuário de Santa Luzia, above Viana do Castelo, for views over the mouth of the Lima, then wander through the historic center and its Friday market.

For nature, the northern part of Peneda-Gerês National Park can be reached from Melgaço, Arcos de Valdevez, and Ponte da Barca: trails, waterfalls, and mountain villages await. On the coast, Moledo Beach is great for surfing and long walks by the ocean. Finally, taste Alvarinho wine in the cellars around Monção and Melgaço, and cycle a stretch of the Camino de Santiago that passes through Ponte de Lima.

Where to stay

Our houses and villas are spread between the coast and the interior. Moledo is great for its beaches and relaxed seaside feel, ideal for families with a kitchen of their own. Viana do Castelo blends heritage and city life, while Ponte de Lima and Arcos de Valdevez take you into rural Minho.

For wine lovers, Monção and Melgaço line the Minho River; Valença offers its border fortress, and Ponte da Barca opens the door to the mountains. Plenty of options to combine independence and space for a group stay.

Which area should I choose depending on my stay?

Moledo suits families for its beaches and quiet seaside setting. Viana do Castelo blends heritage and city life. Ponte de Lima and Arcos de Valdevez immerse you in the rural Minho. Monção and Melgaço appeal to fans of vinho verde and vineyards.

What about wine and markets in the area?

The wine cellars around Monção and Melgaço offer tastings of Alvarinho, the Minho's signature grape variety. In Viana do Castelo, the Friday market brings the historic center to life. Ponte de Lima, on the Camino de Santiago, can also be explored by bike among vineyards and along the river.
