Casa da Torre

Casa da Torre is a model for the typical beauty of the Minho region.
In recent years, various restoration works have been carried out to make the house more accessible, more comfortable and more modern, while preserving its original style and beauty.

The house is located in a beautiful spot, surrounded by the acclaimed green fields that can only be found in the Minho region. On the estate you will find a covered area and the threshing floor where the grain used to be laid to dry and there is also the large, special "espigueiro"; these are the typical elongated silos from this region in which the grain, especially maize, was then stored.

Along routes you will also get to know the rich variety of flora and fauna as can be found in the Serra da Cabreira, Natural Parks Peneda Gerês and Alvão.

The attractive geographical location of the Casa da Torre allows you to enjoy both the soothing tranquility of the countryside and the mountains, as well as the proximity to beautiful cities with a rich offer of historical heritage, such as Porto, Braga and Guimarães, all of which are are less than an hour's drive away and are easily accessible via modern motorways.

For those who love the sea, it is also possible to reach the famous beaches of Vila do Conde and Póvoa de Varzim within 45 minutes.

The people of Abadim are warm and cheerful, they are simple and hospitable people who live mainly from agriculture and animal husbandry. They often perform their tasks in a very traditional way, and you will regularly see cows and goats grazing in the adjacent meadows.
The house is also very well suited for friendly couples with children.

A 10-minute drive away you can do all your shopping in a large modern supermarket and on Mondays there is the weekly market where local products are offered.
