About this property

The Nook - Harmonious and Welcoming

Recanto is a completely new small villa, decorated and equipped with comfort and well-being in mind for those seeking rest and knowledge of this fantastic region, located between the Douro and Tâmega rivers. This region stands out for its landscape beauty (Douro Vineyards and Paiva Walkways), its rich heritage (Romanesque Route) and its renowned gastronomy.
The location of O 'Recanto allows a close and direct experience with the friendly people of the small town of Maureles, which belongs to Marco de Canaveses.
This house has parking garage with direct access to the interior of the house. Occupying up to 6 people (4 adults + 2 children), it offers 2 air-conditioned rooms with flat-screen TV, a living room, a fully equipped kitchen, and two bathrooms. It also has a nice outdoor garden area with swimming pool. Here you can sunbathe, cool off and have a nice meal.
The excellent location of O Recanto, 9 km from the A4 and A11 highways, allows you to be within walking distance and minutes from major cities such as Porto, Guimarães, Penafiel and Amarante. Marco's train station is 9 km (Porto - Pocinho line) from the guest house and 58 km from Porto International Airport.
Recanto is also inserted in the demarcated region of green wines, so you can enjoy the beautiful vineyards up close and taste the excellent wines of the Marco Wine Route.
