Christina and Beatriz made us feel like family from the moment we stepped through the door. The dinner was spectacular, the views were magnificent, the wine and port were delicious, and the estate was gorgeous. We were so sad to leave! We wish we could've stayed longer and hope to get back some day.
Sitting in 120 hectares of Douro Valley vineyards, this traditional manor house has been converted into Portugal’s first wine hotel.

Our stay here was idyllic. The staff and property were warm, professional, and delivered consistent five star hospitality, cuisine and accommodations. The UNESCO World Heritage Douro Valley views here are the absolute best in the area. Highly recommend!

The views are spectacular and the staff were very helpful providing local knowledge freely.
Pool was very refreshing after a hot day exploring.
Excellent communication before we arrived for our stay.
Loved hearing about the history of the family and house.
A relaxing holiday, highly recommended.

Pinhão is at the heart of the Douro region and is surrounded by the most iconic Douro wineries, it's a mandatory visit if you're visiting Douro for its wines. Perfect place to stay for a few days while you explore the wineries that surround it.

It is a small town in a beautiful setting.
It is a small town in a beautiful setting. The solar boat ride was really nice - we went in the late afternoon when most of the boat traffic had settled down. There are at least four wineries where tasting is possible (although we didn't participate). We really enjoyed the restaurant Cozinha da Clara just outside of the village - they served the best pork we had ever eaten. The Vintage House has a lot of character and is a lovely place to stay.

Pinhao is a great town to based in Douro Valley.
Pinhao is a great town to based in Douro Valley. There are tons of wineries and restaurants on the town level to walk to and also up in the hills. You can come to Pinhao by train from Porto easily and then walk or take cabs to get to wineries. Don’t leave without taking a private or group boat trip for amazing scenery. If you take the train from Pinhao to,the last stop going east and then turn around and return to Pinhao this has beautiful views too. We loved staying at Casa do Casal de Loivos (it is up in the hills but a 10 euro cab ride will take you into town). The view from there are unmatched. We also loved staying one night at Casa De La Rosa, which has an amazing restaurant and beautiful terrace with a swimming pool. You can walk into Pinhao town from Casa De La Rosa so it is a convenient location.

I recommend staying at least a night at Douro hostel, a home away from home (and honestly the best hostel I've ever stayed in, more like a guest house). Staying a night will give you the time you need to explore the hills, vineyards. Make sure to pop into the local butcher for some incredible cured pork and cheese!

We drove to Pinhão.
We drove to Pinhão. The roads are slightly terrifying but the views are spectacular.
We were there in March so not everything was open. Best restaurant was Writers Place! The walking trails through the vineyards were fantastic!
This was a clean and cosy house with a large private terrace that had absolutely spectacular views. The beds were comfortable and kitchen adequate for cooking simple meals. We did a 1 hour cruise along the Douro from the wharf at Pinhao which was so serene and a must to see the wine terraces from the water. We ate out at the Writers Place one night (pretty average food) and lunch at Veladouro (really good food).
Friendly, helpful staff. We had to leave early on our final morning, and the staff provided a 'picnic' breakfast to take with us on the train back to Porto. Pinhao is a beautiful town to visit on the Douro river, surrounded by vineyards. We took a self-guided walk around one, which ended with a glass of port. The owner of Dois Lagares House also produces good wine!
We stayed five nights at Quinta de la Rosa and it was perfect. Our room was in Amarella cottage a few minute walk from the main house which was lovely and had its own pool! Food at the restaurant was great including Tim’s Terrace. Also it’s only a short 10 minute walk into Pinhao where there are more restaurants, bars and boat trips and the train station.
The Vintage House was in a great location on the river and walking distance to several wineries and restaurants in Pinhão. Parking at the hotel was easy and our room was very comfortable with a fantastic terrace. Breakfast was delicious and we enjoyed sitting on the terrace admiring the view of the vineyards and the river while eating.
The view from the apartment’s balcony is wonderful. The view is across the small town of Pinhão and down to the Douro River & valley. The balcony is in the sun all afternoon & evening and has comfortable seating. The apartment was all very clean and the kitchen was well-equipped. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit.
