Modern bungalow with private pool in quiet area

Monte da Veiga House: The New Luxury Lifestyle

We offer the rare experience of a truly peaceful life. Here, luxury is measured in the depth of a peaceful night's sleep and the space to think clearly again. In a world designed to keep you in a restless routine, we invite you to slow down. Nestled in the virtually untouched landscape of Minho, our refuge is where modern quietude meets ecological responsibility.

The 20000m of surrounding nature offers a truly immersive experience. Discover our organic garden, walk along the trails and find local flora and fauna in their natural habitats. One of the highlights of this ecological sanctuary is the biological pool. Dive into the crystal-clear waters, free from harmful chemicals, as the pool's natural filtration system ensures a pure and refreshing swim. Around the pool, you will find serene spots to relax, meditate or simply enjoy the tranquillity of the environment.

Inside the bungalow, you will find a cosy and inviting space, designed to blend perfectly with the natural environment. Relax on eco-friendly furniture and sleep deeply in organic bedding.

This eco-friendly bungalow promises an unforgettable escape for those seeking a sustainable and rejuvenating experience. Whether you are a nature lover, an eco-traveller, or simply someone looking for a unique retreat, our bungalow offers a truly special stay.

In the morning, fresh bread from local producers is left in the accommodation so that guests can enjoy it during their stay.
