Maria
My studio flat is situated in the centre of the village of Provesende, Upper Corgo, in the Douro Valley. Which is one of the oldest demarcated and regulated wine regions in the world, Protected Designation of Origin: Port or Porto. (Portuguese fortified wine produced with distilled grape spirits, exclusively in the Douro Valley). It's also a World Heritage Site, for being the landscape most transformed by hand, by man: the socalcos (narrow and irregular terraces, where the vineyards grow).
I won’t be around, for I live in the UK. You’ll get my contact details (Phone number and e-mail), once your booking is confirmed, but I do go backwards and forwards a lot, so I might meet you. I have a lady that comes around to clean and tidy, so if you need anything just let me know, and if possible, I’ll have her deliver it.
