Poço Verde Mill | River | Peneda-Gerês National Park | Laboreiro River
Description: Imagine yourself with your eyes closed, sitting on the rocks of a river and breathing in the purest, most peaceful air of the mountains...
Take a deep breath! Open your eyes and discover these sensations in reality, on the banks of the Laboreiro River, in a unique retreat, restored from an old mill whose name was adopted from the Poço Verde (Green Well) located a few metres away and where the old Chocolate Factory that operated in these parts was also located. The famous “Chocolate Carabel” kept its freshness on the banks of this river that flows nearby.
Its interior, carefully renovated, offers contemporary comfort without sacrificing the authenticity of the place and its people, in a gesture of cultural and environmental preservation, in a story that carries the weight of time that also falls in love with the present.
Featuring a kitchenette with fridge, electric hob and microwave, a living room with sofa bed and fireplace, and a bathroom with shower, it is fully equipped for a peaceful and comfortable stay. Climb the iron stairs to find the mezzanine with a double bed and a balcony overlooking the floor below, and let yourself be carried away by the sound of the river flowing outside!
For your comfort and convenience, it also has a smart TV and free Wi-Fi.
Allow yourself to feel, with the scent of chocolate, this place that will enchant you at first sight. The invitation is made by the murmur of crystal clear waters and their ripples on the rocks, by the falls in the Laboreiro River and by the mountain in the background.
A short distance away is the village of Castro Laboreiro, with its rich archaeological and landscape heritage, which easily captivates those who feel at home in nature. The nearby trails lead guests to discover the rich biodiversity of the National Park, making this accommodation the perfect place for hiking enthusiasts.
In autumn and winter, the setting changes and autumnal colours (re)clothe nature, where so often a beautiful white blanket of snow also settles in an embrace with the soul of the mountains. At times like these, the fireplace beckons. Sit down in its cosy warmth, with a book in one hand and a hot chocolate in the other, and let yourself be warmed by the crackling flames.
This mill shares the beauty of the place with another old mill, which has also been restored. The two can be booked individually or together for exclusive use.Moinho do Poço Verde invites you to contemplation and adventure. Come and join us!

Lugar maravilloso para explorar el Parque Nacional. Con “piscina” privada junto a la casa. Algún problema con la wifi pero todo estupendo.
