The Pousada Barao de Forrester enjoys a prime position at the heart of the upper Douro region, surrounded by some of the most beautiful scenery in Portugal. Views toward the terraced vineyards of the port wine estates can be enjoyed from many of the guest bedrooms and the spectacular Douro river and village of Pinhao can be reached within a 20-minute drive.
