Photos and Description of the Minho & Costa Verde vacation cottage rental

Covas is situated approx 20 minutes from the Spanish border and the old town of Villa Nova de Cerveira, 25 minutes from Camhina and its pristine white sandy beaches. Across the border is northern Spain's Galician region which is steeped in history with wonderful seafood and tapas. Our property was restored in 2007 and sits in 1.5 acres of private gardens. The Old Stillery contains 1double bedroom, en-suite shower room and a large kitchen living area, with dining table and comfortable seating, and double sofabed, there is also a woodburning stove and central heating, room fans are provided if needed. Next door is the old quinta believed to be 300 + years old which contains a large ensuite double bedroom. Both properties have satellite tv.Please note that the owners do live on-site in a seperate property and do occasionally share the pool, but we would like you to look upon this as an advantage! The cottages are cleaned and the linen changed weekly, we do not include beach towels.

Covas enjoys a well stocked mini supermarket, post office, cash point and 4 family run restaurant / bars, serving good quality traditional food. In the local town of Villa Nova de Cerveira you will find a good supermarket, shops, banks, and a large number of cafe / restaurants, the majority of which are situated around the old square. It also holds a large Saturday market where you can buy almost anything! Camhinia is a short 20-25 min drive where you will find pristine, white sand beaches and plenty of good local sea food sold in the local market. Historical Ponta de Lima with its old Roman bridge and wonderful old cobbled streets is a 30 minute drive, there you will also find a fantastic 18 hole golf course. If you are after fantastic scenery and walks look no further than our doorstep and the beautiful Serra de Arga, where you will find amazing views of the Atlantic coast and inland towards the national park.
