Sitting in the middle of vineyards in the celebrated Portuguese wine region of Dão, this stone manor house is just the place for a peaceful getaway. The surrounding farm has been in action since Roman times, as evidenced by the ancient trough – or lagar – in which grapes were trodden that can still be seen on the site. By contrast, the home is a more recent addition and its interior has received a substantial amount of care and attention in recent years. As you take your first tour around the rooms, you're greeted by strikingly contemporary furnishings and finishes everywhere you look, whether it's the sleek fireplace, bright white kitchen or minimalist dinner table next to a textile artwork. There's a strong experiential element to this address, too. The host can help arrange a welcome basket, wine tastings and brunches full of local produce, or yoga sessions and bicycle rental in case you feel the need to work up an appetite beforehand. In the surrounding area, there are lots of quaint villages and stretches of countryside to explore on foot, too.
