A Marble Manor 's Romantic Garden is Wedded to a Secluded Beach

Close to Portugal's Atlantic coast near Esposende, a well-appointed manor weds strong influences of French architecture of the 17^th century. Marble is extensively used in the Casa Normanda. 

The Normanda House, set in its own romantic garden of spacious lawns, offers granite tables for outside dining and garden chairs. Two of its double rooms lead directly into the fragrant, poetic garden area. From there, a few minutes promenade down a quiet lane leads to a sandy, long beach backed by timeless sand dunes.

While the manor itself sits in a small Portuguese community surrounded by pine trees and cultivated fields, the main commercial area of Portugal is close by. This perfect-for-a-honeymoon manor is located about an hour north of Porto airport along an improved highway.
