Casa de Rebolfe is located
in Porto Antigo, overlooking a lake originated by the Carrapatelo dam,
just a few hundred meters away from the river Douro. The nearest villages
are Cinfaes and Baiao.
![]() The view from the house and terrace is truly delightful stretching for miles of terraced properties and woodland separated by the River Douro. Tourist boats often cruise its waters in a memorable and interesting journey. Birthplace of the Port wine, the Douro region was the first wine production region to be implemented in the world. Casa de Rebolfe was once the main house of a farm located by the river Bestanca which ceased to exist when the Carrapatelo Dam was constructed. This 18th century house is built in granite featuring careful carved stonework of the doorways, window frames and cornices. In 1990 the house was carefully
restored preserving its original architecture and adapting it for tourist
accommodation.
On the upper floor there is one twin and one double bedroom, one with a view to the river. On the lower floor there is one twin and two double bedrooms. On the lower floor, in the
corridor leading to the breakfast/sitting room, there is an imposing old
wood press for wine making. It was used until a few years before the house's
restoration.
In the summer, the terrace is covered by vineyards providing a pleasant shade in the warmer months. There is also a living room with satellite television on the upper floor. The swimming pool is set in a gardened area approximately 60 metres from the house. It is reached by a stone path through the slopes of the property. Its dimensions are 6 by 12 metres with the maximum depth reaching 1,90 metres. In the garden there is also a barbecue area. There is a restaurant in Cinfaes which may deliver meals to the house upon request (except on Sundays). |
