Calejo House – Pool & Sports & Grill Retreat | House in Viana do Castelo
5 Bedroom House in Cardielos, Viana do Castelo
Calejo House – Pool & Sports & Grill Retreat is much more than a holiday home — it's a true sanctuary where comfort, leisure, and exclusivity come together to create truly unforgettable moments.
Upon entering, you're welcomed by a warm entrance hall that provides smooth access to the different areas of the house. On the left, you’ll find a functional, fully equipped kitchen with a guest WC — perfect for shared culinary moments with family or friends. On the right, the simple yet comfortable living room invites you to relax and enjoy laid-back time together. Also on this floor is a more private area with two bedrooms (one with an en-suite bathroom and shower) and a shared bathroom — ideal for those who prefer to avoid stairs.
Upstairs, two additional bedrooms benefit from natural light and views of the surrounding area, complemented by a shared bathroom — perfect for comfortably hosting larger families or groups.
The basement is a true leisure and charm area: a billiards room for lively games and an impressive wine cellar that can hold around 1,000 bottles — an exclusive feature that is sure to delight wine lovers.
The property also includes a cosy mini apartment with an independent entrance, fully integrated into the house’s dynamic. This self-contained space, with a double bedroom, bathroom with shower, and kitchen, is ideal for couples, relatives, or guests who value autonomy and privacy during their stay.
But it’s outdoors where Calejo House truly shines. Surrounded by a manicured garden, the house offers multiple seating and dining areas, equipped with comfortable furniture — perfect for long afternoons of leisure and open-air dinners under the stars. The BBQ area sets the stage for relaxed, flavourful moments shared in great company.
The two swimming pools — one for adults and one for children — are true oases of fun and relaxation. While not heated, they benefit from the naturally warm regional climate, often reaching 28ºC during the summer months. The result? A refreshing and invigorating swimming experience, ideal for every summer day.
For those who enjoy staying active, the property features a multi-sport court suitable for tennis, football, or basketball. Right next to it, there is a versatile hall — a multi-purpose space that can host retreats, workshops, family gatherings, or special events, adapting to each guest’s needs and imagination.
Whether you’re looking for total relaxation, quality time with your loved ones, or an inspiring setting for a unique event, Calejo House – Pool & Grill Retreat has everything you need for a memorable stay — where every detail matters, and each day brings a new discovery.
Guests have exclusive access to the entire property, including the pool and indoor facilities.
