Quinta da Bemvisa

Situated at the village of Calheiros, only 7km away from Ponte de Lima, at the heart of the Minho region, Quinta da Bemvisa has an outstanding view over the Lima valley and its slopped green fields meticulously arranged.
This seventeenth century farm house has been carefully restored, preserving its original architectural traces, which contrast with its modern décor. The ancient lovely granite seats by its windows, the stone chimney, its enchanting private chapel dedicated to St. John the Baptist, the surprising tower, and the breathtaking views from each of its rooms over beautiful surrounding green landscapes are some of its unforgettable features.
Whether by sunrise or sunset, the ancient granary and its nearby granite treshing-floor offer an idyllic setting to enjoy a relaxed meal or a simple get-together with family and friends. A pleasant swimming-pool and inviting tennis courts, surrounded by a magnificent forest of oaks and chestnut trees, embroidered by streams and small fountains, offer a rich natural environment for a perfect holiday.
Quinta da Bemvisa is also situated in a region where guests may find multiple leisure activities – from a pleasant stroll along green paths of great beauty, to ancient traditions such as the Table of the Four Abbots, completed by horse riding, mountain biking, canoeing, or a visit to the nearby golf course.
Nature lovers are invited to climb Arcela mountain or visit Castelo and find out the “garrano” wild horses, and hidden surprises of the local fauna and flora.
The rich traditional gastronomy of this region should not be missed .“Sarrabulho” and “leite-creme” accompanied by the traditional Vinho Verde are ingredients for the magic of an amazing stay.
