    Fernanda is a very kind and helpful host. She managed to organise a wine tasting close by. The house has everything you need for an off the track stay in Douro Valley.

    The hosts are some of the nicest people I've met. The location is off the beaten path, but in the best of ways. It's in a quiet little town with so much charm. Would recommend to friends and family.

Fernanda Valente
Pequena casa centenária situada no coração do Douro, o local ideal para começar a sua descoberta. O aconchego deste alojamento vai realmente o fazer sentir em casa na reconhecida região património da UNESCO.
Olá o meu nome é Fernanda e serei a vossa anfitriã durante a vossa estadia no Douro. Em 2017 voltei as minhas raízes e troquei a cidade do Porto pela minha terra natal Fontelo no coração do Douro. Podem contar comigo para tornar a vossa estadia num momento de construir memórias e vos guiar com as minhas propostas para conhecerem o Douro como um residente local o conhece.
Fontelo fica no centro nevrálgico para quem quer visitar o Douro, a sua proximidade aos concelhos da Régua, Lamego, Tabuaço, Pinhão, entre o rio e as zonas interiores onde se pode descobrir os monumentos relevantes e a história da região. É na freguesia de Fontelo onde vai descobrir o fabuloso miradouro de S. Domingos com as suas fabulosas vistas sobre a cidade de Lamego e a cidade do Peso da Régua.
