Casa do Moleiro" (Miller's House) has a privileged location. It is situated in one of the slopes of the “Montemuro”’s mountain, 200 m away from the “Bestança” river. This is a mountain river with trouts and otters and it is considered one of the less polluted rivers in Europe. The valley is part of the “natura 2000” net, and due to its biodiversity it has been classified as “Corin’s biotype”.

It is 6 Km away from the “Carrapatelo” lagoon, where you can practice water sports or do nice boat trips.

Its location lets you go fishing, hunting, walking, and there is also the possibility of riding a donkey, or do a nice cruise on the “Douro” river.

It has panoramic sights either to the “Bestança” valley, either to the “Carrapatelo” lagoon in the “Douro” river.
There are descriptions from guests like this:

“If it was “Aquilino Ribeiro” who surprised it, he would say the Moleiro’s house was a “Pincha no
crivo” (Casting on the sieve), debauchee and curious”.
