V1 · Póvoa do Lanhoso
This wonderfully restored former mill is located at the end of a bumpy track alongside a tributary of the Rio Ave amidst beautiful rural scenery near the village of Taíde, 7 kms from the town of Póvoa de Lanhoso where you’ll find restaurants, shops, a large weekly market and all local amenities. Braga, one of Portugal’s oldest and most historic towns, is 25 kms away and a little further is the magnificent National Park of Peneda-Geres.
The Water Mill is a Costa Verde holiday villa of exceptional charm, with some unique and rather romantic touches, including original materials and relics from the old mill’s historic past in and around the house. Interior designs blend a delightful fusion of contemporary and rustic styles between the main house and the superb studio which is 15 meters away beside the waterfall. The water course still runs beneath the dwellings and is imaginatively visible inside both. The open plan living area has an antique dining table beside patio doors to the private gardens and swimming pool, and a couple of steps lead down to a cozy sitting room with an open fireplace, TV and a balcony overlooking the stream below.
The kitchenette opens onto a lovely breakfast terrace with the same inspiring view, whilst an open staircase climbs up to two elegantly rustic en-suite bedrooms, a twin and a double. The studio suite has a quietly sophisticated, almost Alpine style, with wood flooring and walls, contemporary furnishings and a bedroom area with a full width window and a balcony looking directly onto the beautiful surrounding scenes
The watermill and cascata studio are independant and each with its own pool but can be let together for a larger party or families neighbor to the watermill the studio is a second project on the same property though with its own private grounds and pool but sharing the peaceful location and enjoying a prime position over the waterfall.
Being a second project studio is not behind the watermill at any level. Studio is though a fully modern project skillfully merging in The landscape by its design and natural copper coating same elegant decoration as in the watermill and also water element was thought on the design details. As in the watermill here too the water flows underneath the studio.
This is the perfect romantic retreat.
