The
Casa de S. João is one of the most noble houses of the quiet vilage
of Santa Marta de Portuzelo, 3 km from the historical city of Viana do Castelo
and closely located to the river Lima estuary.
The
vines yards, fruittress and lawns that encircle the house defy for long
and relaxing walks.
Like most houses in the area, it is built with solid granite walls.
This creates a pleasant temperature all year round.
Furnished in a traditional Portuguese style, it has several rooms all
keeping trace of the more than 200 years of history and, at the same time,
giving all the modern confort needed.
The cosy bedrooms
of the house invite for relaxing naps after the long visits that this region
is suitable for.
