Absolutely fantastic large family house, extensively rebuilt 20-years ago and fully modernised throughout whilst retaining style & authenticity. Perched on the hillside looking upstream across the valley above the town. Amazing breakfast and most welcoming and hospitable hostess.

Everything!!!!!!! The hostess was just great from the minute we knocked on the door, the rooms were big with antique furniture, comfortable bed, bathroom with a modern shower and clean. when entering the guests are offered some fresh cheese and wine on the house. The hostess showed us around the property, the whole house is amazing, the pictures on the web don't do it justice. There is a balcony where you can sit and enjoy the view of the town and the sky with the stars. In the morning you are greeted with a lavish breakfast, it consists of 4 different types fruits, jams, buns, coffee or tea, scrambled eggs, cold cuts, cheese slices, yogurt, and a slice of breakfast cake. The hostess recommended a small restaurant down in the village were we found it and the food was great, most of the locals eat there and you know it is good. We would say from start to finish, it was amazing, if we knew about this place before we would made other arrangements to stay longer.

Our second visit (first visit May 2018.) We had to come back for more! Louisa is lovely; a friendly Portuguese welcome to her house which is 'grand' in every respect - but Louisa makes it feel homely and warm - beautifully maintained, clean and just wonderful! Well kept gardens, fabulous views from the terrace - a bit of opulent peace and quiet. Lavish breakfast; nothing is too much trouble. We will return again... not only because Amarante is so beautiful but because we simply love staying at Casa do Fontao. This time we were accompanied by our friends from England. They were equally impressed! Thank you Louisa for the complementary wine and cheese. Sad to leave but happy to come back again.

The host was incredible. It’s so lovely to see someone who genuinely loves what she does and cares so much for each guest who stays. The breakfast, the views and the traditional decor really was the icing on the cake!!
