Flores do Vez is located in the mountain village of Sistelo in northern Portugal, nestled in the Vez valley with its green slopes and the terraced fields typical of the region.

Depending on the season, the day here begins with mist drifting through the valley, with views of the old stone walls of the fields, or with the changing green of the surrounding mountains. Little more than birdsong and the murmur of the river below the village can be heard.

The two houses of Flores do Vez were originally abandoned granite houses that had stood empty for many years. Instead of building something new, the owners carefully restored the existing buildings and preserved their original structures. They were reopened as Flores do Vez in May 2026.

The design consciously incorporated materials that reflect the history of the place: natural stone, wood, linen, and calming colors characterize the rooms. Large windows offer views of the landscape, connecting the interior with its surroundings. The houses are simply furnished, with a keen eye for detail and an atmosphere that is more tranquil than decorative.

A major advantage of Flores do Vez is its location amidst nature. Many hiking trails begin right at the doorstep and lead through the terraced landscape of Sistelo, forests, and to viewpoints overlooking the Vez Valley. Therefore, a stay doesn't require much planning. Often, all you need to do is set off, explore the surroundings, and spend the day without a fixed schedule.
