The name of Vila Maria Quinta, is dedicated to the mother of the owner of the property. The reconstruction of the main house was started with the aim that the mother would come to live in this house. But due to the fact that where she lived it was difficult to access.
After 6 months of work had been completed, the lady died and construction was stopped for a year and a half.
After that time and due to the persistence of the owner’s younger brother, who gave the idea of making a Villa, the owners came to the Region, and that was when they decided to move forward, making some changes to the initial work.
This is how this is what it is today, for the enjoyment of our guests.
The forest was completely abandoned, where potato, sweet potato, and onion plantations were formerly used. So it was absolutely transformed, to have beautiful plants and trees of different species, though very carefully and cared for with great care, for the rest and reflection of the visitors.
It was always done the impossible for the original house to be preserved as it was in the past, mixing the comfort of the modern with the old, preserving the names of the different divisions, trying to make known the characteristics of each one, with the different illustrative paintings on its walls.
The central image of the courtyard was where the wine press was once located, where grapes were crushed, because this place has a large vineyard.
