From Porto Airport: Take the motorway A3 to Braga/Valença. At th km76 leave the motorway in the exit signposted Ponte da Barca/Ponte de Lima. After paying the toll, turn right to Ponte de Lima. 2 km after you will come to a roundabout, continue straight on and 1,5km after you will find another roundabout. Turn right to Viana do Castelo and 500m after you will come to a third roundabout just before the bridge. Continue straight crossing the river Lima. Upon reaching the other side of the river, turn right, after the gas station, onto the north bank road to Arcos de Valdevez and Valença. Continue for another 200m and take the first turning on the left - a small lane signposted Casa do Outeiro. Go along the lane and you will come to a right hand turning in front of a church. Turn right here. Take the lane up the small hill and 500m after you will enter the large white gates immediately in front of you.

 

The peaceful ambience of this 16th Century house was disrupted in 1809, when it was invaded by French soldiers and used as their headquarters. It has since regained its composure, surrounded by a leafy garden and woods. Its vast 16th Century fireplace in the kitchens with its majestic stone pillars, is a beautiful souvenir from years ago. Alongside Outeiro is an enchanting stone aqueduct covered in ivy, which can be viewed from the veranda.
