The "Mirage of Douro" House is located in a privileged space, on a high ground with panoramic view over Douro river. It is the ideal place to disconnect from daily routine and reunite with nature, taking advantage of the river beach, the river and the forest that the region offers.
The fundamental principles of the House are FREEDOM, CONNECTION WITH NATURE and DISCONNECTION OF TECHNOLOGY. Being the House isolated and integrated in a green land, it provides silence, relaxation and peace.

The space
The "Mirage of Douro" House has been in existence for a few hundred years, having been one of the first houses on the Douro margin.
Initially, the House consisted only of four massive local stone walls, having recently been restored and expanded. It then received a structure in natural wood and a glass front that provides, in all divisions, a panoramic view over the Douro River.
"Mirage of Douro" has 3 floors, the ground floor being the cooking and dining area, the 1st floor a living space, with the possibility of a double bed and an open space bathroom, with shower. The top floor has entrance from the outside, being a room that provides more privacy, with double bed and sanitary installation in open space.

Guest access
Any space in the House and the surrounding land is accessible.
