  • Vast site outside Perelhal, a 10-minute drive from the Atlantic coast
  • Viana do Castelo 25 minutes’ drive; Porto 45 minutes
  • Pool, garden and barbecue area; spacious pitches in a eucalyptus grove
Sitting between the city of Barcelos (15 minutes’ drive) and the Atlantic coast (10 minutes) is Quinta Viana, a fenced-off 1.2-hectare site in the valley of the Cávado River. It’s blissfully peaceful here – not least because the owners welcome only a maximum of nine groups at any time; and spacious touring pitches are surrounded by a fragrant eucalyptus forest. Although your own dog will have to stay at home, you can still get your fix of canine action courtesy of the two resident German shepherds – they are well trained, not to mention used to being around guests of all ages and sizes. A saltwater pool is available for refreshing dips and invigorating laps when you can’t face the drive to the coast; there are tall trees and large umbrellas for shade, and plenty of loungers around the pool. The flower-filled gardens also have a barbecue area where you can mingle with the other guests and get some inspiration on what to do the next day. Catching a wave (and a sunset) at Esposende (10 minutes), maybe? Or a spot of birdwatching on the sand dunes of the Parque Natural do Litoral Norte (20 minutes), with its windmill-dotted landscape? Golf Quinta da Barca (10 minutes) is an 18-hole course on the banks of the Cávado, and a horse-riding centre a 10-minute drive away arranges excursions in the countryside and on the beach. When you need to fill up the larder, there’s a supermarket in Perelhal village (5 minutes’ drive), alongside a couple of restaurants.

Local attractions

The Elevador de Santa Luzia at Viana do Castelo (25 minutes’ drive) travels up a forested hill topped by the monumental Sanctuary of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, started in the early 1900s. Take in far-reaching views of the coastline and the city before checking out the Roman ruins nearby, then head to the modern cultural centre on the Limia river for an exhibition. Built between the 15th and 17th centuries, the cathedral in Braga (25 minutes) displays various architectural styles – from the Manueline exterior to the rich baroque decoration of its chapels. After visiting the cathedral treasury, head to the landscaped Santa Barbara Garden, part of the Archbishops Court. Porto (45 minutes) is famed for its many buildings covered with blue azulejo tiles – from the cloisters of the cathedral, to the Chapel of Souls and São Bento Station. After visiting Livraria Lello, a splendid bookshop with an elegant staircase and a stained-glass ceiling, take a breather and sample the local Port wine in one of several bars.
