Portugal

Presenters Piers Taylor and Caroline Quentin travel to Portugal for the first time to find another four extraordinary homes. They are keen to visit a country that has a reputation for great design and craftsmanship but is less exhibitionist than its European neighbours. Their first house is located in the Portuguese Riviera, an upmarket area west of Lisbon. From the road Wall House gives little away, hiding behind its modern castle-like wall. But crossing a contemporary drawbridge Piers and Caroline discover a huge, breathtaking luxury home of glass, wood and concrete.
