Nestled among the rolling hills of the Douro Verde, where vineyards trace the horizon and silence still feels like silence, is set Belo Douro – a charming holiday home for six guests with a private pool and sweeping valley views. This is a place of simplicity and warmth; a refuge to slow down, unwind, and rediscover the beauty of the present moment.

Built from traditional granite, the house features thick stone walls, exposed wooden beams, and a contemporary interior that radiates light and calm. Natural materials and soft tones create an atmosphere that feels both authentic and modern. On the ground floor, you’ll find a modern kitchen, a cozy living room with a wood-burning stove and a comfortable sofa, and a dining area enclosed by glass sliding doors that open directly to the garden. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms (one with an additional sofa bed), each with its own en-suite bathroom and a balcony overlooking the hills. Outside, the private pool invites you to cool off, while the veranda is the perfect spot for breakfast in the sun or a glass of local Vinho Verde at sunset.

Belo Douro is located in Paços de Gaiolo, a small village tucked away among green hills near the Douro River. Wander through vineyards, visit picturesque villages such as Cinfães and Marco de Canaveses, or take a leisurely boat trip on the river. For food and wine lovers, there are countless local quintas nearby where you can taste the region’s world-famous Douro wines. An authentic and tranquil region – still undiscovered, yet irresistibly beautiful.
