Newly refurbished room, located on the ground floor

Inserted in a Farm with a Solar Minhoto built in 1697, it belonged to the Captains-mor of the Convent of St. Martin of Tibães, thus having a close historical relation of this house with the Monastery of Tibães.
In the House of the Maha lived the illustrious Dr. Francisco Guedes Machado, excellent physician and benefactor of the parish, giving rise to the current name of Rua Dr. Guedes Machado.
Casa da Maínha, emblazoned, is currently classified as Municipal Interest.

The privileged setting of the Quinta with its secular Buxo Gardens and wide green spaces provide a unique environment.
On the 11th of MARCH 2011
Casa da Maínha was elected one of the 7 Wonders of the Monastery and Cávado.

Owners:
We are a traditional family, who like to cultivate the art of welcome, and create a warm and familiar environment for our guests, who enter as clients, and leave as friends.
The Quinta is extremely quiet, allowing a rejuvenating, peaceful sleep, waking up in the morning with the different species of birds that abound on the property.
On the wall next to the kitchen of the House there is a singular loft, much appreciated by historians.
