Location
|
|
|
Casa do Castanheiro is within walking distance from the ancient fortress town of Caminha. Proudly situated facing Spain at the mouth of the River Minho, this town has been inhabited since Celtic and Roman times. There are also a number of great beaches nearby, including a lovely beach 2 kms away - this is one of the most beautiful in North Portugal with pine woods opening onto a long and white stretch of sand.
Casa do Castanheiro is ideally situated for exploring the many delights of the Minho region, including the Peneda-Geres National Park, the walled border town of Valenca and the old sailing city of Viana do Castelo.
The magnificent Spanish cities of Vigo, Baiona and Santiago de Compostela are also within easy reach, as are the large Portuguese cities of Braga and Porto.
The nearest golf course, the Ponte de Lima course is approx. 40 kms away.
