Description
A beautiful Quinta in Central Portugal (Beiras) – We (Jan & Karin) own a rural property in the Portuguese wine region of Dão. The Quinta is situated in the small village of Póvoa de Midões (Tábua), near the Mondego River with stunning views of the Mondego Valley and the Caramulo Mountain range. The Quinta is a true oasis of peace and nature.
The Quinta is 6 hectares in size. A large part of it is forest, another part is grassland. We also have different types of fruit trees, a number of olive trees and grapes. All harvest is just for personal use. We also have a ecological pont.
We are looking for a couple who can help us in the months february, march and april.
