Casal Magister - Historic and romantic Villa in the Countryside

Casal Magister is a 19th century house, fully restored in 2022. Its renovation fully respected its original northen house design, providing it with a contemporary atmosphere inside, although with the architectural characteristics of a country house.
This is a unique property, which has 4 bedrooms, a music room, a billiards games room, a full kitchen and a living room with a fireplace. It has a garden with great mountain views. It has an outdoor swimming pool and its own place for a barbecue and wood-burning oven. It is also equipped with all household and bed linen, bath towels and pool towels, TV and Wi-Fi.
The environment strives for stillness and privacy. We try to make the guest feel at home.
The property has very good accessibility and, despite being in a rural environment, it is only 7 minutes from the A7 Motorway exit.
It is 50 minutes from Porto Airport and one hour from Spain. It has a privileged proximity to Oporto, Guimarães, just 44 km away, Braga, 65 km away. The Vidago and Fafe golf courses are 30 minutes away, and Amarante is 50 minutes away.
The Casal Magister experience takes guests on an excursion into the history and nature of Portugal, with its ethnographic museums such as Casa da Lã, the Railway Museum, tours and activities on the river and in the mountains, tastings of green wine or exploring the mountains such as known mills of the King.
In spring and summer, the swallows say good morning by diving into the saltwater pool.
On site you will find historical attractions and nature activities and the traditional festivals and pilgrimages of Minho and northern Portugal
