About This Property
The Ponte Velha Mill is more than just a rural tourism accommodation. It's a place where history intertwines with the serenity of the present, where every stone, every window, and every corner holds memories of bygone eras while simultaneously offering all the comforts of modern life. Located in Bragança, right on the banks of the Sabor River, this unique space was once a ruined watermill. For years, it remained silent, surrendered to time and nature. Until, with dedication and respect, it was carefully rehabilitated, giving it back its life and preserving the charm of its origin.
Today, the Ponte Velha Mill is a refuge with soul. A place to rest, breathe deeply, and feel time slow down. Here, the tranquility of nature meets the convenience of the city. The sound of gently flowing water, the chirping of birds in the neighboring trees, and the serene view over the river create a perfect environment to disconnect from the outside world, share moments with loved ones, or simply enjoy the silence.
